  • Aside from the questionable theological and historical work, this is a fairly average to low-grade mystery novel. I suspect that the only reason that it has become so popular is due to its controversial topic.

  • Frustrating

  • The clues were sad.
    The sky is blue-blue jays fly-flying planes crash-your aunt is living in your basement....

    Also, a lot of false endings/resolutions left me annoyed.
    We found the answer-the answer is in this volatile container-we can't open this-wait a clue!

    A really good page turner. I could not let go of this book, always wanted to know what came next. The suspense will grab you. Quite a fascinating story with lots of interesting facts I didn't know, others I simply don't believe. The author was very smart to put it all together and come with a truly ingenious piece of work.

  • I read this non-stop for two days. It's quite a thrill.
    I was so disappointed by the movie.

    Angels and Demons is a better book and, I sincerely hope, will be a much better movie.

One of the bestselling novels of all time, Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code has intrigued and thrilled millions of readers around the world. Now all the artwork, symbols, architecture, and historic locations—over 160 images—are beautifully compiled in this full-color collector's edition.

A mind-bending code hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci. A desperate race through the cathedrals and castles of Europe. An astonishing truth concealed for centuries… unveiled at last.

While in Paris on business, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon receives an urgent late-night phone call. The elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum, a baffling cipher found near the body. As Langdon and a gifted French cryptologist, Sophie Neveu, sort through the bizarre riddles, they are stunned to discover a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci–clues visible for all to see and yet ingeniously disguised by the painter.

The stakes are raised when Langdon uncovers a startling link: the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion—an actual secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci, among others. Langdon suspects they are on the hunt for a breathtaking historical secret, one that has proven through the centuries to be as enlightening as it is dangerous. In a frantic race through Paris, and beyond, Langdon and Neveu find themselves matching wits with a faceless powerbroker who appears to anticipate their every move. Unless they can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle, the Priory's secret—and an explosive ancient truth—will be lost forever.

Instantly catapulted to the top of the bestseller lists around the world, The Da Vinci Code is simultaneously lightning-paced, intelligent, and intricately layered with remarkable research and detail. From secrets embedded in the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper, to the symbols of ancient Egypt, to the architecture of landmarks such as the Louvre, Westminster Abbey, Rosslyn Chapel, and more, this fully illustrated collector's edition delivers the complete reading experience of Dan Brown's riveting novel—from the opening pages to the unpredictable and stunning conclusion.
