  • An excellent thriller overall, and a good introduction to Dan Brown's work if you are a newbie. A bit more complex than the newer 'Da Vinci Code'. The movie, in my opinion, pales in comparison to the book itself. Movie=fast food, Book=quality buffet dinner!

    An excellent thriller overall, and a good introduction to Dan Brown's work if you are a newbie. A bit more complex than the newer 'Da Vinci Code'. The movie, in my opinion, pales in comparison to the book itself. Movie=fast food, Book=quality buffet dinner!

    The only down side is that it is a long book, because every action and description are written in meticulous details. It will take readers a while to finish the entire thing.

  • Love it, it's a must have. Very well written. I love watching movies/ tv & after reading this & a preview of the movie last night not sure I will watch as just that one change in the movie trailer killed the movie. The book was great.

  • 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.

An ancient secret brotherhood. A devastating new

weapon of destruction. An unthinkable target.

World-renowned Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to a Swiss research facility to analyze a cryptic symbol seared into the chest of a murdered physicist. What he discovers is unimaginable: a deadly vendetta against the Catholic Church by a centuries-old underground organization -- the Illuminati. Desperate to save the Vatican from a powerful time bomb, Langdon joins forces in Rome with the beautiful and mysterious scientist Vittoria Vetra. Together they embark on a frantic hunt through sealed crypts, dangerous catacombs, deserted cathedrals, and the most secretive vault on earth . . . the long-forgotten Illuminati lair.

BEFORE THE DA VINCI CODE WAS BROKEN,

THE WORLD LAY AT THE MERCY OF ANGELS & DEMONS
