The Pagans may have retrieved Raina and Callie, but the Templars won't let them go without a fight. To achieve their aims, both the Pagans and Templars need a knowledgeable magik, so they race to secure the first Adept sighted in a generation.
As the Pagans focus on reforming the Registerium and transferring Callie to their nation, demons from other nations disappear without a trace, and the Registerium is too preoccupied to help. The politics rests on a knife edge, and the Pagans must tread a careful path, convincing those who would normally vote against them to come into the fold.
But that's easier said than done when some call for the Registerium to be disbanded entirely, the Templar nation becomes erratic, and the West Coast finally shows its true colors. But Raina and Caspar have waited too long, been through too much to let their enemies pull them and their daughter apart, and they'll do whatever it takes to be together.
Nation of the Stars concludes the Ancient Souls series. It contains adult themes, violence, and content of a sexual nature.
