For the science fiction/end of the world aficionado this is a worthwhile read...Buying into the premise is surprisingly simple...The final chapter is nothing short of brilliant. Beautifully descriptive prose and gently moving situations...a well conceived journey through uncertain times. I live in anticipation of the next book.
If you had three days' warning of the end of civilization and a safe place to hide:What would you take with you? Who would you save?And who would you leave behind?Henry Willingham and his friends have three days to make the most terrifying decisions of their lives. The world has been infected by an inescapable living nightmare of alien vegetation that will replace all life on Earth. They must get everyone they love safely underground into a fallout shelter. There's not enough time. There's not enough room for everyone. Who will they save? Who will they leave behind? How will they live with the consequences?After hiding underground for a year, the last three survivors must brave the otherworldly infestation and travel through what used to be upstate New York struggling for their lives and their humanity.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! How often does the trailer intrigue you but give too much away? That was not the case for me with Lumi-Omi, as its followers affectionately call it. The tag line hooked me, yet I was surprised by what I found inside. In fact, the surprises just kept coming from start to finish. The book is well written and perfectly paced.
The story is both creepy and beautiful. It was very hard to put down, but I never would have slept if I hadn't taken my time with it. The imagery filled my brain and I often had trouble shutting off at night. Don't let that scare you. If you're a bit of a softy like me some of the scenes will challenge you, but the experience is worth all of the stomach-churning torture.
