I loved this book. It was like Fallout meets Firefly meets Supernatural meets Shannara. Set in Canada (yay! MOAR FANTASY SET IN CANADA PLS) along the Assiniboine River, ages after a Cataclysm that has destroyed our modern world, there is now magic in the world again -- fae, trolls, gnomes, dwarves, and various other non-human races intermingle with humanity in a future Wild West. The religion practiced by the Gunslingers is a mash-up of Christianity and Wiccanate Paganism, but sorcery is considered dangerous and must be hidden from the public eye, lest one ends up on the wrong end of a witch hunt.

I found myself wanting to know much more about the world the author has created. Though this is a quick read (being a novella), it is packed full of good characterization, a steady plot, and worldbuilding you can really sink your teeth into. I've already pre-ordered the next book in the series!
