The story was jumping around a little too much for me.  There is reference to this cult religion that is obsessed with the story of Lot and Sodom.  This is referenced a bunch of times, including a complete writing out of the story (I thought this was completely unnecessary.  3 billionaires have set up bunkers to escape any apocalypse that might occur. Just unsatisfying overall.  Not recommended.
