The following quote is from Seven Stones to Stand or Fall by Diana Gabaldon, “Introduction.” Copyright ©️2017 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved,

“The Outlander series includes three kinds of stories: The Big, Enormous Books of the main series, which have no discernible genre (or all of them); The Shorter, Less Indescribable Novels, which are more or less historical mysteries (though dealing also with battles, eels, and assorted sexual practices);
And
The Bulges,—these being short(er) pieces that fit somewhere inside the story lines of the novels, much in the nature of squirming prey swallowed by a large snake. These deal frequently—but not exclusively—with secondary characters, are prequels or sequels, and/or fill some lacuna left in the original story lines.”
