Survival — Steve Elliott

Sar is a recent orphan who has the good fortune to fall in with a group of other young survivors. All of them are fleeing from the dreaded Glor - a race of all conquering aliens. True, human civilization has been mainly destroyed, and humanity almost wiped out, but Sar begins to question this situation. Are the Glor truly aliens? And, if not, what madman has released them to prey on humanity? As time passes, Sar begins to realise his latent talent as a psychic, and he, along with his companions, uncovers a mysterious artefact which he believes may provide the answers to all of his questions. However, the final truth, when he discovers it, is almost too incredible to believe. Despite this, Sar decides on the most daring of all adventures, and challenges his friends to accompany him.
