With society in an accelerating state of collapse, a couple of star-crossed lovers named Kirk and Jennifer find themselves caught in the middle of a power-struggle between factions led by superhuman beings. A warlord named Ramar is building an international rogue state called Thule; its inhabitants claim descent from extraterrestrials who seeded the white race on Earth in the distant past. Opposing them is Kalianna, a black media star who leads her own cult and claims to be an incarnation of the Goddess Kali. The climax is a magical battle in which the antagonists wield spiritual and sorcerous energies powerful enough to trigger an apocalypse.
