My first Robert Harris book and potentially my last. Started off really promising and loved the concept. In these crazy times, possibly not a million miles off where the world can end up, if not careful. However, it never actually went anywhere. I was waiting on some big reveal and instead we never really find out if the Ark contained things that would help expedite human progress and once again start a new cycle of human advancement. Overall it passed sometime while on holiday but left me very underwhelmed.
