Characters

The All Souls Trilogy establishes four types of beings including humans, and creatures: vampires, witches and daemons. An ancient covenant prohibits intermingling between the different kinds of creatures.

Vampires

Some are members of a secret society called the Order of Lazarus and others are members of the Congregation.

Witches
Diana Bishop is the female protagonist of the story and her family is entirely comprised of witches. Many other witches are woven throughout the story as either friends, teachers or enemies of Diana.

Daemons

Humans
Famous and infamous humans are woven into the story. The longevity of vampires has allowed Matthew Clairmont to meet some of history's most interesting people.
