About this ebook
The world has been taken over by a new race of cyborgs who view human flesh only as a resource. If Trix and her makeshift family are to survive they must escape the ravaged city, with all it's sensors and traps, and they cannot do this alone. Fortunately a band of young freedom fighters has come to get them out, and guide them toward the mountains, where more human survivors await. But in this new and dangerous world trust is a luxury few can afford.
The Escape is a short story, and was short-listed in Writing Magazine's Unreliable Narrator competition.

My wife, Gin, once knocked gently on my head, as if it were a door. “Hello,” she kept saying. “Hello. Who’s in there?” She and our therapist, Dr. Sherby, laughed a little about this, so I did, too. What fun. Keep knocking on my head like that, like i
