More Description

Hellbent on revenge, a lone bounty hunter named Angela Graves rides across the sunbaked wasteland in pursuit of her quarry. Between bloody run-ins with the elusive outlaw, her damaged organic parts are replaced with mechanical components. She finds herself in strange towns whose settings are as rugged and rustic as they are evolved and high-tech. She encounters old friends and new enemies along the way. She even makes an unexpected connection at a bot brothel between all the violence. But when an eccentric engineer shows Angela the legion machine--a terrible slumbering colossus secreted in a hollowed-out mountain--she thinks she has found the means to see vengeance served. But it will come at a horrible price.

"Carlson plunges his reader into a meticulously crafted, futuristic, Wild West wasteland where robotic enhancements, nanotechnology, and the odd dose of "necrotechnology" serve in aiding his steely, vengeance-seeking heroine, Angela Graves, as well as her cohorts and an enemy or two. There are enough engaging, detailed surprises and double-crossings to entertain even the most jaded of western and science fiction aficionados. It's a hell of a good time!"
