"A must have for Kitty Norville fans, but also an excellent standalone for readers new to Vaughn's worlds." -Kelley Armstrong, author of Bitten

From the author of the beloved Kitty Norville werewolf DJ host series, the last full tale in the series: the vampire origins of Kitty's famed ally, Rick-and his sudden turn to darkness in the seventeenth century.

Ricardo de Avila would have followed Coronado to the ends of the earth. Instead Ricardo met with the end of his mortal life-and a new one, as the renegade vampire, Rick.

For over five hundred years, Rick has infuriated the demon world. He has ferociously protected his found-family from marauding vampires, joined forces with a legendary gunslinger, appointed himself the Master of Denver, and called upon a church buried under the Vatican. Of late, Rick has even made a famous friend: everyone's favorite supernatural talk-show host, Kitty Norville.

Now, whether you are new to Vaughn's fan-favorite novels, or a longtime reader, you'll be riveted by the final full-length tale of the series.

About the Kitty Norville series:
Carrie Vaughn's series, about a werewolf who hosts a talk radio advice show for the supernaturally disadvantaged, began with Kitty and the Midnight Hour. The series will end with the The Immortal Conquistador, and the forthcoming collection Kitty's Mix-Tape. For more about the Kitty Norville books, go to https://carrievaughn.com/kittybooks.html.

Industry Reviews

"Vaughn presents a gratifying origin story for Ricardo "Rick" de Avila, vampire Master of Denver and partner to the popular werewolf heroine of her Kitty Norville series."
-- Publishers Weekly

"The path from conquistador to bartender is filled with battles and death, protection and hope. Vaughn weaves a beautiful tale of a devout man who faces the Devil and wins. VERDICT This fast-paced novella, filled with action and emotion, offers a satisfying entry back into the 'Kitty Norville' series."
--Library Journal

"The Immortal Conquistador was a captivating read that finally shed some light on one of the most interesting and secretive characters from the Kitty universe. This book is sure to please all the Kitty Norville fans out there!"
--Fantasy Hotlist

"What I love about Vaughn's writing is that she takes you on a fun adventure and secretly sneaks in layers of complexity to her characters where you find yourself thinking about them for days on end. I can't wait to see where this series is heading!"
--Infinite Text

"A must have for Kitty Norville fans, but also an excellent standalone for readers new to Vaughn's worlds."
--Kelley Armstrong, author of Wherever She Goes and Led Astray.

"No surprise to anyone, but Carrie Vaughn can write the sixteenth century up through the Old West as well as it's been done. And it just feels so good to sneak back into the Kittyverse through the vampire door."
--Stephen Graham Jones, author of Mongrels and The Only Good Indians.

"Carrie Vaughn's The Immortal Conquistador is an excellent addition to her Kitty Norville books, and gives us a closer look at one of her most fascinating characters."
--Stephen Blackmoore, author of the Eric Carter Necromancer series

"I love this story and highly recommend it."
--Tor.com

"I love the way this story challenges the usual trope of vampires as (a) intrinsically evil; (b) forever separated from humanity. Ricardo, who is anything but a bloodthirsty fiend, makes the world a better place by his compassion and kindness."
--Deborah J. Ross, author of the Lace and Blade series

"A cool bonus of this [book]--you can read it totally independent of the Kitty Norville series . . . I'm very glad I got it."
--The Irresponsible Reader

"Vaughn has created a rich world full of magic and mayhem that could support thousands of stories. Sign me up for all of them!"
--One Book Two
