BEN STILLMAN’S WILD RIDE!

When Sheriff Ben Stillman accompanies Judge John Bannon and friends to a wedding in Sulfur, Montana Territory, he aims to have a nice long weekend of rest and respite from law dogging. But Angus Whateley has other plans. The crazy ex-Confederate has just been released from prison, and he’s out to avenge the hanging of his cattle-rustling sons--hangings ordered by Bannon.

Backed by a gang of the most violent and vicious members of his family, Whateley strikes when the judge takes the stagecoach back home. Soon, Stillman finds himself fighting a wheel-bound war against clan of zealous killers out for bloody revenge...

Hell on Wheels was first published back in September of 2006 by Berkley. Then in 2019 it was reissued by Wolfpack Publishing 

Hell on Wheels delivers exactly what the title promises—relentless action and high-stakes drama. In this gripping installment, Ben Stillman and his pregnant wife Fay are en route to a wedding with Judge John Bannon and his wife. But the celebration turns deadly when Angus Whately, recently released from prison, sets his sights on revenge. Years ago, the judge ordered the hanging of Whately’s sons for rustling—and now Whately intends to balance the scales in blood.

The return journey by stagecoach becomes a gauntlet of violence. Stillman must fight to protect everyone aboard, unaware that the judge and his wife are hiding truths. The tension is razor-sharp, the pacing relentless.

This is classic Peter Brandvold—gritty, well-crafted, and packed with the kind of storytelling fans have come to expect. With 16 books in the Ben Stillman series, I’m already queued up for the next wild ride.

Originally published by Berkley in September 2006, Hell on Wheels found new life in 2019 through Wolfpack Publishing, bringing its explosive energy to a new generation of readers.

 Gun Trouble at Diamondback

A Bear Haskell Western #1

by 

Peter Brandvold

I wrote this review in 2016. I think this would have made a great series. Currently I think there are 4 books available.

Meet Bear Haskell. He's big, he's tough, he loves the ladies, and he's going to take over where Longarm left off. So if you loved Longarm then jump on the Bear train. I can't see it stopping anytime soon.

In Bear Haskell Peter Brandvold has crafted a top notch new western hero which readers will love and a story that will leave them looking for the next one.

The story sees bear investigating the death of his friend Lou Cameron and the element of mystery will stay with the story right up to the last few pages and have an ending that you won't see coming.

The story is easy to read and keeps you interested until the last page. And as with the Longarm books (Which Peter wrote many of) these are classed as adult westerns and not for the faint of heart.

In all this was a fantastic start to a new series that I'm sure will be around for a long time to come.

Great story, great author, great read. What more could you ask for? I've had this on my Kindle for a while and never gotten around to reading it. Now that I have, the rest of the series beckons.

Bad guys you love to hate and worse ones to hate more. Peter Brandvold weaves a great tale with fantastic characters.

If you want to know more, then buy the book.

My views on the series or author haven't changed since this review was written. Still one of the premier western writers wielding a keyboard. (And no, I haven't finished the series yet).
