About this listen

 In a world dominated by technologically advanced aliens, humanity has been reduced to living like vermin, hiding in the insulation of the very homes built by their conquerors. As they scavenge for food and essentials, a complex social and religious order emerges women become the keepers of knowledge and healers, while men take on the roles of warriors and thieves. To the aliens, humans are little more than an annoyance‚Aîuncivilized and unintelligent, with a fate of extermination. This gripping tale opens with the stark reality Mankind consisted of 128 people. The sheer population pressure of so vast a horde had long ago filled over a dozen burrows. - Summary by the author and Phil ChenevertCopyright Science Fiction Collection Science Fiction Spirituality
