  • 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.

  • 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 :)

  • 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.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Da Vinci Code comes the explosive thriller that started it all.

An ancient secret brotherhood. A devastating new weapon of destruction. An unthinkable target. When world-renowned Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to his first assignment 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 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.

Critics have praised the exhilarating blend of relentless adventure, scholarly intrigue, and cutting wit found in Brown's remarkable thrillers featuring Robert Langdon. An explosive international suspense, Angels & Demons marks this hero's first adventure as it careens from enlightening epiphanies to dark truths as the battle between science and religion turns to war.
