    Summary

    What happens when a character confronts his own creator and asks them to explain why we writers always have so much fun torturing our protagonists?
    Prince Stolas of the Ars Goetia is exhausted. His divorce from Stella has left him drowning in debt, and when he isn’t performing his rituals on Full Moon nights, he dedicates himself to writing. His most popular series, now on its twentieth book, stars the charming freelance assassin Blitzø Buckzo, a ruthless imp always ready to take whatever he wants.
    Tired of the life he is trapped in, one night Stolas decides to use his grimoire to steal all of his protagonist’s personality traits, so that he can take for himself the life he desires and, above all, get his daughter Octavia back. The spell fails, transporting Blitzø directly into his world. The imp is aware that he is nothing more than a character in a book series, and there is only one thing he wants to know from Stolas: why did he kill his mother?
