Review: OK but disappointing
Rating: 3 out of 5

What should have been an exciting book about the actual impact of the comet was disappointing due to the use of some characters in ways which did not seem consistent with the previous books and the use of incredible stupidity as a plot device.  The author has put scientists and engineers to the task to building humanity's arks, with over a decade of planning in secret, but somehow the need for advanced medical resources, physicians and nurses seemed to have escaped their planning for the most part. I was very tired of the excuse of little or no medical care available. I was also not happy with some of the military characters behaving in a way that counters the training their ranks implied. It was still worth reading based on moving the story forward, but I am hoping the next book proves more enjoyable.
