Now Dan Brown's legions of fans can add a breathtaking new dimension to the Angels & Demons reading experience with this Special Illustrated Edition, featuring 150 images of the architectural highlights, religious symbols, paintings, maps, culptures, and locations found in this contemporary classic.
An ancient secret brotherhood. A devastating new weapon of destruction. An unthinkable target. When world-renowned Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to a Swiss research facility to analyze a mysterious symbol -- seared into the chest of a murdered physicist -- he discovers evidence of the unimaginable: the resurgence of an ancient secret brotherhood known as the Illuminati...the most powerful underground organization ever to walk the earth. The Illuminati has now surfaced to carry out the final phase of its legendary vendetta against and age-old enemy.
Langdon's worst fears are confirmed on the eve of the Vatican's holy conclave, when a messenger of the Illuminati announces they have hidden an unstoppable time bomb at the very heart of Vatican City. With the countdown under way, Langdon jets to Rome to join forces with Vittoria Vetra, a beautiful and mysterious Italian scientist, to assist the Vatican in a desperate bid for survival.
No Dan Brown library is complete without this lavishly illustrated special edition. No true lover od suspense fiction will be able to resist the exhilarating blend of scholarly intrigue and relentless adventure found in Angels & Demons.

This is better than The Da Vinci Code and a wonderful read.
I really liked this book, unlike other members of my household. I thought it was a great read. And the ambigrams were awesome. I made some wicked shirts with those :)
I read this BEFORE The DaVinci Code and I loved it.
Robert Langdon's first adventure - takes him to Rome, where he has to try and find a bomb, before it destroys Vatican City, and all the world's cardinals with it. I liked it almost as much as The Da Vinci Code.
I couldn't believe how lame the last line of this was. Granted I was listening to it on CD which was quite fun, but the last line was jut ridiculous.
a good ride!
the ambigram designs are AMAZING.
a bit implausible in parts, but that's what makes it fun. had some good food for thought as well.
