It's a good book, even if I flew through it because I wanted to see what happened. What happened is this *spoiler warning*: Satellite weapons that cause blindness and some kind of plague somehow are activated unintentionally, and bio-engineered carnivorous plants, Triffids, capable of walking and communicating with each other, prey upon the blinded population. Only a few sighted people are left, to try to begin again.
I like this book because it involves the confluence of a number of screwups, the accidental use of diabolical weaponry, the escape of Frankenplants, which were being cultivated for their oils, in spite of having a weapon that could kill a person or animal.
