What to expect for Ian Murray in Outlander Season 7B based on the books?

As a devoted Outlander fan who has weathered storms and battles alongside Jamie Fraser and his clan, I eagerly anticipate the return of Ian Murray in Season 7B. The reunion at Lallybroch will undoubtedly be tinged with sorrow this time around, as our beloved character is suffering from consumption, a harsh reminder of the unforgiving times they inhabit.


We know Ian Murray will be in Outlander Season 7B. What type of story will be told?

When Outlander hinted that Ian Murray would reappear in Season 7, book enthusiasts understood this as Jamie, Claire, and Young Ian preparing to return to Scotland. Indeed, they arrived in Scotland at the conclusion of Outlander Season 7A. Now, it’s time for them to journey towards Lallybroch.

In this article, we delve into the plot developments of the novel “An Echo in the Bone,” where we rejoin the lives of the Murray family. Those who wish to avoid book spoilers may want to give this read a miss!

Ian Murray is suffering with his health in Outlander Season 7B

The reunion won’t be completely joyous for all the characters, as some carry burdens from past experiences. For instance, recall in Outlander Season 3 when Ian was imprisoned? It appears this wasn’t an isolated incident, and those incarcerations have had a detrimental impact on Ian’s wellbeing.

In the past, hygiene wasn’t always optimal even at its best. It was particularly poor in prisons, and unfortunately, this is where Ian contracted what we now know as tuberculosis – consumption back then. When Claire, Jamie, and Young Ian return to Lallybroch, they learn that Ian Murray’s time on Earth is limited.

Jenny implores Claire to intervene and help her spouse, given that she’s a healer. However, we understand that it’s beyond Claire’s abilities, as both the necessary resources to treat consumption are absent and the moment for treatment has already passed. Alas, Claire finds herself powerless in this situation.

Ian acknowledges his destiny. He believes that Claire wouldn’t abandon him in a dire situation if she had the means to help. On the other hand, Jenny harbors a different perspective, believing that Claire is meting out some form of punishment towards her.

Jamie is there for Ian in his last days in An Echo in the Bone

Claire and Young Ian return to America prior to Ian Murray’s demise, while Jamie stays put. Despite being brothers, they part ways, but Jamie ensures that Ian is never alone, seeing him through until the end with companionship.

Establishes an intriguing narrative involving Claire and Lord John Grey in America. Feel free to explore their social media updates for a glimpse into their upcoming events!

Outlander Season 7B premieres on Friday, Nov. 22 on Starz.
