The above quote is a simile. In context, the quote reads.....

The light drew them as if they were plants; the chemistry of the life that composed them demanded the light as a necessity of being; and their little puppet-bodies crawled blindly and chemically, like the tendrils of a vine.

Note, the text actually reads "drew".
