Talamasca: The Secret Order has been canceled at AMC after just one season, marking the first series in the Anne Rice Immortal Universe to be cut short.
The third series in the Immortal Universe, Talamasca followed the titular secretive society, comprised of the men and women responsible for tracking and containing the witches, vampires, and other creatures scattered around the globe. Nicholas Denton starred as Guy Anatole, who learned that the Talamasca had been tracking him since childhood, pulling him headlong into a world of secret agents and immortal beings who, until then, had maintained a fragile balance with the mortal world.
