<content:encoded>&lt;![CDATA[ &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A sardonic urban fantasy of blood, banter, and very bad decisions.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Vincent Lupo is a jaded, wine-soaked immortal just trying to finish writing his latest smutty novel and avoid the people he’s wronged—magical or otherwise.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then a severed head turns up in his fridge, branded with an invocation sigil and whispering lines from a play he wrote a century ago. A play the wrong people believe is prophecy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now Vincent’s neck-deep in death cults, cursed scripts, and a once-devoted mortal aide who’s now a cult leader hellbent on crafting his own narrative—and casting Vincent as the unwilling Bloodbard at centre stage. Read book 1 of The Fang &amp;amp; Loathing Trilogy: Destiny Can Bite Me&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://mybook.to/destinycanbite&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;noopener&quot;&gt;https://mybook.to/destinycanbite&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; ]]&gt;</content:encoded>
