In the year 3000, there are no countries, no cities...Earth is an empty wasteland. In eight domes mining installations scattered across the globe, vicious Psychlo aliens grind out the mineral resources of the planet whose population they destroyed a millennium ago. The scant few remnants of humanity hide in villages and remote areas, an endangered species on the brink of extinction.
Apathy and superstition have suppressed all hope when one man, Jonnie Goodboy Tyler, dares to leave his village in search of a better life. Against all odds he marshals the last survivors to join him in a desperate attempt to drive the alien Psychlos from this world before man is lost forever.

this is a classic! DO NOT base this book on the movie!
