The subtitle is "A Weird West Novel," and it surely delivered. Told through the point of view of a US Marshal as reluctantly teams up with an outlaw who he captured and saved from a vigilante hanging, in order to find the woman impersonating her and leaving a trail of violent crimes and bodies throughout Kansas. There's some magic, a fair bit of violence, and a lot of introspection on justice and good vs bad. I really enjoyed this one, and hope there is a sequel at some point. Make Me No Grave by Harley Stone and narrated by Oliver Wyman is a western with a bit of supernatural added to it. A strong female lead as the bad guy and a true good sheriff in a land where even that is unique. The story is about how they end up riding together despite there differences and each growing emotional while together. She also has a special gift. Very action packed and made me feel like I was in the dusty, crude Midwest in a very lawless time. The narration was performed brilliantly! geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Almena Guillory, better known as the Grizzly Queen of the West, has plenty to recommend her for the noose, but U.S. 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.Before escaping, however, Almena unexpectedly saves his life by absorbing his wound through the use of dangerous flesh magic. In the days of the Civil War, she served Lincoln personally, using this power to heal Union soldiers by taking on their injuries. Now she also uses it to kill.Weeks later, Apostle fears Almena is involved with a new gang terrorizing Kansas. Yet when he corners the outlaw queen, she makes a convincing case for her innocence. With a mind to capture the real bandits, Apostle reluctantly agrees to a partnership, not expecting the attraction that soon follows. Turning Almena away from her criminal ways 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.
