Publisher's Summary

Marshal Apostle Richardson faces off against bloodthirsty outlaws, flesh witches, ruthless vigilantes, and more in this gritty, magical re-imagining of the Old West.

Almena Guillory, better known as the Grizzly Queen of the West, has done plenty to warrant the noose, but US Marshal Apostle Richardson enforces the law, he doesn't decide it. When a posse tries to lynch Almena ahead of her trial, Apostle refuses their form of expedited justice - and receives a bullet for his trouble. Almena spares him through the use of dangerous flesh magic but escapes soon after saving him.   

Weeks later, Apostle fears the outlaw queen has returned to her old ways when she's spotted terrorizing Kansas with a new gang in tow. When cornered, however, Almena makes a convincing case for her innocence and proposes a plan to take the real bandits down. Working with a known killer opens Apostle up to all sorts of trouble, not the least being his own growing attraction toward the roguish woman. Turning Almena away from vengeance may be out of the question, but if he doesn't try, she'll wind up right where the law wants her: at the end of a rope.

And if Apostle isn't careful, he'll end up joining her.   

If you like Red Dead Redemption and Lila Bowen's Wake of Vultures, you'll love this gun-blazing weird Western.

Some very 1950s ideas about women

The narration was good, and the story would have been fine if it had been written in the 50s. As it was, the idea of a fragile woman, whose exploits were only impressive because they were done by a woman, not because they were impressive in and of themselves, and even though she’s a famous outlaw, needs to be both rescued multiple times, and told how to rob a train (!) by a man who’s never done it before, is a bit old. Also, the main villain is a woman who dares to think that women should have rights and be treated less unfairly. So ... not the groundbreaking feminist western I was hoping for. And it was too bad, because I was so excited for this.

I couldn’t stop listening. I’m not what I liked more, the story, performance, genre.

Totally enjoyable.
