ALL THE PULP WESTERN ROMANCE AND VIOLENCE OF YESTERYEAR MADE NEW AGAIN BY MEAN PETE PRESS!
In this first of a new series of spicy pulp western stories (roughly 50 printed pages) written exclusively as ebooks by Peter Brandvold and published by his own Mean Pete Press, the Rio Concho Kid must save a young Mexican girl from the savage intentions of the lusty General Constantine San Gabriel, who forced her into marriage.
On their wedding night, Tomasina De La Cruz sticks a stiletto in the General’s guts and flees his sprawling hacienda with the help of the half-Apache drifter, Johnny Navarro, a.k.a., “the Rio Concho Kid.”
The Kid and Tomasina race toward a rendezvous with the young man to whom Tomasina’s heart really belongs. In so doing, Tomasina and the Kid must avoid a deadly trap set by the man whom the dishonored General hired to bring his young bride back so he could have her tortured and gunned-down by firing squad.
That man is the infamous, deadly bounty killer known only as El Leproso, the Leper!
Can the Kid prove victorious over his fiercest enemy and avoid falling in love with Tomasina, who is as beguiling as she is beautiful but who also harbors a bizarre, bone-chilling secret?

BULLET FOR A VIRGIN Blood and Lust in Old Mexico edition by Peter Brandvold Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Peter Brandvold, also known as Frank Leslie, writes a lot of Westerns, and now he's dipped his pen into the self-publishing biz with a vengeance. Bullet for a Virgin is his first Rio Concho Kid story, and the author has promised it won't be his last. In fact, on the last page of this novella, he states emphatically that the hero will return.
The cover art first drew my eye to this one, then I realized it was a Brandvold story and that pretty much sold me. It's a novella, something around 15,000 words, and makes for a good one-sitting or two-sitting read. I really don't think most readers will get up again without finishing it (unless they're called back to work or have to go do something that will take them away from the story).
The tale of Tomasina de la Cruz's escape from the Mexican general she's been forced to marry is an exciting one, and the pacing never lets up. The Rio Concho Kid seems cut from the same cloth as the pulp Western heroes of days gone by, larger-than-life, a true hero, and I wouldn't have been surprised at all if he'd donned a mask. The loss of his one true love set him on a path that wouldn't have flown back in the heyday of pulps, though, and in that we glimpse the Western as it is today.
Brandvold acknowledges the influences of all these Western styles on his blog, and Clint Eastwood fans will know the author is a kindred spirit when they see the set-up of the final showdown between The Rio Concho Kid and the vicious and leprous bountyhunter known as El Leproso, who wears a sackcloth bag over his head to conceal his horrible features.
I really enjoyed El Leproso as much as I did the Rio Concho Kid, and I hope that this isn't the last we've seen of him because he's a great old school villain. However, the last scene pretty much guarantees that won't happen. But this series is sourced by the old pulps, and in those days editors found ways to resurrect dead characters. I'm betting Brandvold could come up with a couple ways too.
Bullet for a Virgin was a great, rip-roaring read that I blazed through in a single sitting. Complete with short chapters with individual titles and an emphasis on gun-blazing action and an almost supernatural background, the novella harkens back to the old while delivering a white-knuckled read for modern readers.
Bestselling Western author Peter Brandvold has written his first original e-book, BULLET FOR A VIRGIN!, which is also the first in a series of novellas about the Rio Concho Kid. As this one opens the Kid, a drifting, half-Apache gunfighter wanted by the law in the States, is sitting in a cantina south of the border on a rainy night, hoping to pass a few peaceful hours getting drunk. Instead, a beautiful redhead with three gunmen on her trail gallops up to the place, and against his better judgment, the Kid steps in to help her escape her pursuers.
From there the action hardly ever lets up. The redhead, Tomasina de la Cruz, is on the run from a vicious Mexican general who forced her to marry him, although the union has yet to be consummated (hence the title). Tomasina is trying to reach the man she really loves, and the Kid agrees to go with her on the journey and keep her safe. Complicating matters is El Leproso, the Leper, a deadly bounty hunter the general sends after them.
From its opening in the cantina to the final shootout in a graveyard with a nice twist ending, BULLET FOR A VIRGIN! is part pulp (you can tell Brandvold has read his share of stories from SPICY WESTERN), part Spaghetti Western, and pure entertainment. It's also very well-written. I've been saying for years that Brandvold is an absolute master at choosing just the right details to make a scene come alive, and he certainly does so in this book. I had a great time reading it, and if you enjoy action-packed Westerns, you need to check it out.
Well...it's exciting.
I like it very much....Move fast very well written...
Hope he can write more about Rio Concho kid. Until next one.
This was the first book that I have read by Mr. Brandvold and I have to say that he got my attention with this one!
A great start to what will be yet another great western series and one that I read in one sitting.
The Rio Concho Kid is one of those characters that stick with you long after you put the book down. He's a good guy that has had to do some pretty nasty things in the short time he has been alive.
I can't wait for the next adventure!
This is the sort of yarn the exclamation point was invented for! Author Peter Brandvold, always a sure bet, gives us a whole passel of mysterious, intriguing larger-than-life characters in a tale that clips along like a runaway train. A cat-and-mouse chase with more revelations (and gunplay) keeps readers guessing until one of Brandvold's trademark grim-faced, do-or-die, ricochet-riddled fight scenes! What more could a reader want?!
How about this Peter Brandvold has promised us further adventures of the Rio Concho Kid!!!
