Her best friend who she was in love with. Her best friend who was just executed for possession of resistance propaganda. The future American Southwest is full of bandits, fascists, and queer librarian spies on horseback trying to do the right thing.

Gunslinger librarians of the apocalypse are on a mission to spread public health, decency, and the revolution.--Charles Stross A dazzling neo-western adventure. . . .
