Publisher’s description

The story of a man who is also a monster. This man/monster's name is Luther Washington. Centuries ago his name was Lancelot. He is the ultimate warrior knight and also the ultimate ex-con. Why? Lancelot was caged in the statue of the most fearsome of gargoyles (a monster created to destroy demons), Butcher Knight, for 1,700 years. Now, the gargoyle and the man are free thanks to a half-demon witch named Daria. She holds the key to Luther Washington's new freedom and to revenge against the one who imprisoned him in the statue. They say revenge is a dish best served cold. Is 1700 years long enough for you?
