About the Book

Suppose the unthinkable happened. Suppose our fragile planet, Earth,

happened to be in the way of another power's plans. Suppose there was a race

of aliens who had conquered and completely destroyed the populations of a

thousand other planets. Suppose nothing had ever stopped these aliens before

and nothing could this time - except .......

    For some reason, a tiny percentage of Earth's population survived. Why?

Read on! How did the survivors react? Read on! One family in a small town,

named Venice, on the West Coast of Florida did survive. So did certain

breeds

of pets and other animals!

    What would you have done as a survivor in a suddenly hostile

environment?

Read on! The survivors should have learned something from the many obvious

mistakes made by the people who preceded them or did many survivors go

blindly ahead and make the same mistakes?

    Sometimes in the midst of a crisis or even a war, it becomes confusing

as

to who is really the enemy. Sometimes these enemies wear the same clothing

as

we do and even look like us. These enemies do not want to destroy us but to

use us in a different way. These enemies would be just as deadly toward the

survival of our freedom as alien enemies would be to the survival of our

complete world.
