In this debut novel, acclaimed short-story author Tim Pratt delivers an exciting heroine with a hidden talent'€“and a secret duty. Witty and suspenseful, here is a contemporary love song to the West that was won and the myths that shape us'€¦. As night manager of Santa Cruz'€™s quirkiest coffeehouse, Marzi McCarty makes a mean espresso, but her first love is making comics. Her claim to fame: The Strange Adventures of Rangergirl, a cowpunk neo-western yarn. Striding through an urban frontier peopled by Marzi'€™s wild imagination, Rangergirl doles out her own brand of justice. But lately Marzi'€™s imagination seems to be altering her reality. She'€™s seeing the world through Rangergirl'€™s eyes'€“literally--complete with her deadly nemesis, the Outlaw. It all started when Marzi opened a hidden door in the coffeehouse storage room. There, imprisoned among the supplies, she saw the face of something unknown'€¦and dangerous. And she unwittingly became its guard. But some primal darkness must'€™ve escaped, because Marzi hasn'€™t been the same since. And neither have her customers, who are acting downright apocalyptic. Now it'€™s up to Marzi to stop this supervillainous superforce that'€™s swaggered its way into her world. For Marzi, it'€™s the showdown of her life. For Rangergirl, it'€™s just another day....
