Publisher's summary

Hold on to your hats: The authors who brought you the New York Times best seller My Plain Jane, which Booklist praised as “delightfully deadpan” (starred review) and Publishers Weekly called “a clever, romantic farce” (starred review), are back with another irreverent historical adventure.

Welcome to 1876 America, a place bursting with gunslingers, outlaws, and garou - better known as werewolves.

And where there are garou, there’re hunters: the one and only Calamity Jane, to be precise, along with her fellow stars of Wild Bill’s Traveling Show, Annie Oakley and Frank “the Pistol Prince” Butler. After a garou hunt goes south and Jane finds a suspicious-like bite on her arm, she turns tail for Deadwood, where there’s talk of a garou cure. But rumors can be deceiving - meaning the gang better hightail it after her before they’re a day late and a Jane short.

In this perfect next listen for fans of A Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue, best-selling authors Cynthia Hand, Jodi Meadows, and Brodi Ashton bring their signature spark to the side-splittin’, whopper-filled (but actually kind of factual?) tale of Calamity Jane.

Just not as good

I just didn’t enjoy the main characters the way I did in the rest of the series. Definitely not the best but it had it’s moments.

These narrators are the best!

I should have saved this for October since there are paranormal beings involved. So funny!

Great, Fun, Silly Adventure

I love the books these authors have put out.

Both have been fantastic listens. The narrator is fantastic, the story is engaging and fun. They’ve stayed far enough from history that history buffs can’t be offended by inaccuracies because everything is essentially inaccurate, yet not too far away from history in the characters perceived personalities.

It’s a book that I will listen to again a year from now, which is rare. I can’t wait for the next to come from these minds.

Not as great as the others

I loved the first 2 books and the 4th one as well but this one just didn’t live up to the other ones before it. Was very disappointing as a story.

One of My Favorite Series of All Time

I absolutely adored this book. It was genuinely laugh out loud funny, heartwarming, and had one of the best casts of characters I've ever read. I think this may have just been my favorite of the Lady Janies books, and I am so thrilled to see the authors are continuing with a Mary series.

As for the narration, it was phenomenal. I would not have wanted to read this book any other way.

Just Ok. Not really worth buying.

I didn't like that they made Calamity Jane a lesbian. It was unnecessary and didn't help the plot.

Recording errors

They apparently couldn’t decide how to pronounce one of the characters names so they recorded the book with both pronunciations and forgot to take out the one they decided against.

Disappointing

I really wanted to like this one but I just didn’t. I loved Annie and Frank but Jane was really unlikable.

Hilarious

I love these books! They’re always a hoot! With so many pop culture references and little inside jokes they’re just a blast!!

Good story line

Firstly, I really struggled with the narrator/performers voice and the difference between the voices. Some were ok but others just didn’t have a distinctive difference like over heard in other audibles.
The story was somewhat predictable, but enjoyable. I struggled with the “narrators here” parts but some were funny. I’d suggest this book for a teen.
