This is my Mother Sharon Bouriaque's work. She passed away in 2003. I loved reading my mother's work and she got me into writing. So I'm putting this out there with full credit to her. I have made some modification to technology since there has been a lot of changes to technology from when she wrote this until now. But other than that and a few very basic edits the work is hers.

Jeff Carlisle despises the alien race that has colonized his world and inter-married with some of Earth's people. Earth's governments are working to get rid of the Thrans when they learn that something much worse is headed Earth's way---an invasion fleet of RiaZan. The savage spiderlike race who harvests human types for food. The government leaders are terrified. Earth has no workable defense against ANY invaders from space.

However, the Thrans do. They respond to the threat of invasion with an astounding move. They remove the psi-damper from all the people and activate the Scorpion Forces, The psionic warrior who are the elite of the Thran Military units.

The Thran's must also contact a certain youth whom they've kept hidden. They must activate the legendary Gold leader, and Jeff Carlisle's life changes forever when he discovers he is the long-prophesied psionic warrior the Thran's been hiding.
