Sinopse
Características

On the day it happened, nothing stayed in the air.Sam and his family had won a tropical vacation. They were flying from gloomy Seattle to Hawaii for ten days in the sun. Sam was playing a cool futuristic war game and winning. His mom was on her second free Mai Tai. The pilot checked his computer—they had just crossed the point of no return.They realized something was wrong as they flew over the Maui airport when they should have been landing. Flaming wreckage scarred the runways. The large body jet banked and crash landed on the windward side of the island on a tiny airstrip. The rural town of Hana was overrun with people. The world had ground to a halt without warning. Civilization began to unravel, not in days but in a matter of hours. Technology was no longer friend nor tool.Paradise was turning into a nightmare. Hawaiians and tourists were now thrown together in a disparate society. Survival demanded they work together, but the Hawaiians had their own way of doing things that not all would survive. Starvation, raiding parties from other islands, and a clash of cultures was creating a brutal landscape. A surviving handful of scientists from Sam’s flight comes forward and announces the receipt of an extraterrestrial communication, a warning that had come in just before the world fell apart. The Earth would be destroyed by a comet unless humankind acted together to defend the planet. But what could be done without technology?It falls to Sam to unite the warring groups, but how? He’s still a boy—why would they listen to him? Somehow, Sam must be brave enough and clever enough to help them all survive.
