THE CALLING OF BARA

When Con, the child Bara bears in 2044--after all 20th century western civilization had crumbled away--is five years old, Bara hears voices within her demanding she bring Con to Ireland. They are pursued by Con's father, the savage White Michael, travel through wild lands and tribes, until, after being joined by Bara's man Tam, they are welcomed in Ireland by the ruling class of telepaths which had called them. Con, with his unique powers, will one day head this elite who are debating whether or not to restore 20th century civilization, while the evil principle, White Michael, waits in the wings. Atmospheric and moderately involving if you haven't been there before.
