To make things worse, he’s accused of being a Zivver in cahoots with the Radiation and the strange, new monsters sent by the Twin Devils Cobalt and Strontium. The water sources that allow the survival of his tribe seem to run out one after the other and Jared is accused of having brought upon them a punishment from Light. Jared would like to understand the nature of Light and Darkness but his search beyond the barrier that divides the caves from the Original World gets him into trouble. His tribe lives on despite the threats of various creatures such as giant bats and other groups of humans, above all the Zivvers, who are very dangerous due to their extraordinary abilities. Jared Fenton is one of the survivors who live in caves relying above all on their hearing but also on their sense of smell and touch. Galouye was published for the first time in 1961.
