Book Description
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 its most hated enemy -- the Catholic Church.
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.
Embarking on a frantic hunt through sealed crypts, dangerous catacombs, deserted cathedrals, and even the most secretive vault on earth, Langdon and Vetra follow a 400-year-old trail of ancient symbols that snakes across Rome toward the long-forgotten Illuminati lair...a clandestine location that contains the only hope for Vatican salvation.
An explosive international thriller, Angels & Demons careens from enlightening epiphanies to dark truths as the battle between science and religion turns to war.

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 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.
Another book that didn't grab me but was still quite interesting.
A lot of people will say they liked this better than the DaVinci Code, but I would have to disagree. Still very good, but in a different way. A little bit more fantastic if nothing else. I like a book if I can't guess how it's going to end and this was one of them.
