 A young girl who grows up as an indentured servant at a desert saloon in the American West pre-Civil War. When her indenture comes at an end on her 16th birthday, she signs a deal with the devil thinking she will become his apprentice. Instead, he puts her on a horse and sends her out on the road to be mentored by a lone frontiersman who has signed his own deal with the devil. In a word, this book is excellent. It held my attention and kept me wondering what was going to happen. It's a real accomplishment, I think. This is an entirely new American mythology that has no roots at all in European or classical fairy tales. This is a book that delivers on the promise it makes to the reader in its early chapters. It never wavers from its established purpose, and it does not turn into a silly romance. This is another book that I found because of the vaginal fantasy book club, and Felicia Day and her friends will be discussing it in their next episode. I recommend it, 100%.
