What this book is about

In the year 3000, humans are an endangered species dominated by the alien Psychlos who have strip-mined Earth for a thousand years. Jonnie Goodboy Tyler leads a rebellion. Hubbard's science fiction epic is massively long, unambiguously pulpy, and controversial for its connection to Scientology, though the novel itself is primarily adventure SF.
