To Survive the Monster, You Must Become One.
A dark descent into immortality, mutation, and the terrible cost of reclaiming your soul and freedom from a world designed to consume them.
The Author
Leona Caelestis is a witch, storyteller, corporate defector, and loves all things dark and curious. Rubedo, her debut novel, is a fictionalised whistleblow that explores vampirism as capitalism, and the real-life horrors of what we are forced to become at the end of history.
