There was me about to agree. I've just checked the UK
First Edition (p618) and it reads:

"Time is short, and unless the few of us who know the
truth stand united, there is no hope for any us."

It can't be only my copy with a missing 'of'! Really I
don't know why I'm pointing this out ... probably
because my nightshift is almost over and I am very
tired.
