It's a time travel, post apocalyptic novel, in which nature, in the form of a world wide, intelligent forest, has rescued the world from human destruction.
My review:
This is a book that takes you on an exploration. Even learning what the book is about is an exploration. Nothing is as it seems.
As you begin reading, it’s a dystopia. It’s San Francisco of the future, with flying cars and all, but not a place where you want to live. Then, after a very old television set turns out to be a portal into a different world - where nature has risen up and rescued the world from humanity - you’ll think, “Ahh, a fantasy!”
But that wasn’t a wardrobe to Narnia. Every single thing, including the TV set, has a scientific explanation. At the end, you’ll realise it’s hard time-travel science fiction.
...And you'll be exploring a weird, post-apocalyptic, intelligent jungle.
Even the way that all the trees and other aspects of nature seem to be on the same page, that also had a beginning. I won’t say more or it would be a spoiler. Same with the green moon. And the monster isn’t what you think it is.
The three flat-mates that travelled through the portal are different from one another in ways that almost complement each other as a dysfunctional unit, each with their unique hang-ups. Each reacts differently to the new world, and learn lessons they think the other should learn. But their friendship becomes strong in spite of how horribly they appear to betray each other.
I loved this. I’m giving it five stars.
