They turn others creating two distinct communities sustained by human blood. Julian rises as the leader of this new race while haunted by his creation of his nemesis. The ancient Marcian Counsel, the United States, and the evil Scottonian Order vie for dominance against Julian, his people, their strategies, their mutations, and his rise to Emperor. The battlefield is Northern California. He discovers that behind their health, their youth, their strengths, and their mutations is the secret – they are vampires!”
