RHAPSODY OF BLOOD
What if all mythologies were true?
What if you could become a god by killing people? And if someone were the Huntress that killed such gods?
What if there were elves and vampires and dryads and enchantresses and gods and demons? And you had to live in their world?
RHAPSODY OF BLOOD is a story about the death of people, cities and worlds. And dangerously witty women.
Coming July 2012
