The writing is witty and sharp; the story is gripping; and the characters are so realistic. Even the supporting characters are fully defined and interesting.

I wish they were real.E.M.s internal monologues are sharp snappy and often hilarious.A terrific series with a western flair. . . . Great characters that you would want as your friends. Smart funny but not perfect.
