When an alien emperor decides his collection of historical specimens is incomplete, he sends a battered time-ship to the American frontier to acquire the perfect missing exhibit: a nineteenth-century Wild West woman.
Unfortunately for him, he picks Calamity Jane.
Snatched from a Deadwood saloon days after Wild Bill Hickok's murder, Jane wakes aboard an interstellar menagerie filled with stolen people from across Earth's history - Roman soldiers, Viking warriors, scholars, gamblers, children, and captives who have spent years behind glass. The Dominion thinks it has collected a curiosity. Jane sees thirty-eight people who need a way home.
Armed with grit, nerve, frontier cunning, and one mule with a gift for violence, Calamity Jane becomes the last thing the galaxy expected: a rescue plan in boots.
The Abduction of Calamity Jane is a fast, funny, heartfelt space western about captivity, courage, tall tales, and the kind of woman who never waits for someone else to open the door.
