Mature content warning

This novel is for readers of a mature disposition.

The tone is dark, gothic, and visceral, with vividly described settings evoking a sense of decay, horror, and industrial grime. The atmosphere is intense and immersive, pulling readers into the grim reality of Bloodpunk’s dystopian society. Descriptions of blood-based machinery, rituals, and architecture are rich in detail, emphasizing the world’s dependency on blood and giving a haunting, almost supernatural quality to otherwise industrial or Victorian-era aesthetics.
