This is a continuation of a long series.  A comet is about to strike the earth and is expected to destroy mankind so they are pursuing plans to save a remnant to start over after earth becomes habitable again.  Its actually a plausible story.  There are lots of characters and subplots - sort of several stories going on at the same time that tie into each other as the series progresses.  The characters are well developed and the writing is good.  The book does give a bit a explanation of what went on in the previous books without being tedious but really you should start with book one and not try to pick up in the middle of the series as you will miss a lot of the real story.  Unlike some series, this is not a continuation of a character or characters in different stories.  This is the continuation of one big story with many subplots.  The subplots are not confusing by the way.  If you've read the first 3 continue with this one.  Its worth the read.  If you have not read the previous books, do yourself a favor and start with the first one.
