Postamble, The Lost Race

It has been five years since an electro-magnetic solar flare desiccated nearly all of the human race. With very few survivors to protect the earth, it has been invaded by multiple species of alien marauders and pirates, here to strip our planet of refined and raw resources. Small groups of humans gather for protection, safety and to defend what they can. Some people have formed alliances with certain extra terrestrials to insure security of their small communities.
Then a feared race of highly intelligent, giant insects arrive. They round up all surviving humans and those alien races that confront them. The insects are not interested in metals or minerals. They require other intelligent life to supply their breeding nests with hosts for their young. A group of rebels does what it can to disrupt and destroy the insectile aliens while trying to saves human lives. They discover a weakness that can be exploited. The rebel leader, The Survivor from Postamble, hatches an unlikely plan to defeat and liberate all the prisoners before the human race is lost to this savage race of bugs that have claimed the earth as their own.
