Summary
A frontier world. One sheriff. And all the action one spaceport can't hold. Darklanding is the wild, wild west of known space. Sheriff Thaddeus Fry will never completely leave the battlefields of Centauri Prime. His assignment as the sheriff of Darklanding could be a do-nothing job, or it could get him killed.
Book 01 - Faced with a dangerous collapse that could kill hundreds of workers, the new sheriff leaps into action and gets the story of Darklanding started.
Book 02 - There’s unrest among the miners. Desperation sets in for the Company Man. One wrong decision will destroy her career. The sheriff doesn’t care about any of that. There are strangers in town. One or all of them may be enemies. And how does a mysterious runaway fit into the picture?
Book 03 - Unrefined ore is moved by a state-of-the-art monorail from the mines to the spaceport. It’s never gone off the tracks. Until now. What kind of crew is crazy enough to mess with SagCon’s investments?
Fans of Firefly, Bonanza, and Tombstone will love this new series.

Awesome space story!
I really enjoyed this first omnibus. The characters are easy to like, or dislike, and I'm really rooting for the new sheriff to do well at his posting. There is a good amount of battle violence, but it's not over the top. There is also some flirting and emotional tension, which makes my female heart happy. I first read Martelle in End Times Alaska, and even in post apocalyptic Alaska, his characters had heart. Moon is new to me, and just as enjoyable, if he got top billing on the cover. I also really liked Lumley's narration. He's got that no-nonsense manly-man voice, and doesn't try too hard for the feminine voices, just giving them a female inflection, so it's not like listening to Mrs. Doubtfire, but it's just enough you know a woman is talking. As an avid listener, this is important, UNLESS the narrator can produce a believable female voice. Anyway, I'm sorry they changed narrators for the second omnibus, but I'm still really looking forward to reading more about these characters.
