Book Review: All of Brown's books are fun to read, and we thank the Church for discovering a talented young man who had a great idea.
Summary: 5 Stars
Da Vinci Code
The Elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum, leaving a baffling cypher with his body. Symbologist Robert Langdon is call to help with the murder, not knowing that he is the main suspect of the crime. A gifted French police cryptologist, Sophie Neveu, helps Langdon escape and sort through the bizarre riddles that lead to the work of Leonardo Da Vinci--clues visible for all to see, yet ingeniously disguised by the famous painter.
Langdon discovers that t he curator was involved in the society of the Priory of Sion--and actual secret club whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and of course, Da Vinci.
As the plot unfolds, Langdon is on the hunt for a breathtaking historical secret, one that has proven to be as enlightening as it is dangerous. In a frantic race both protagonists find themselves matching wits with a faceless criminal who appears to anticipate their every move. unless they can uncover the secret and explosive ancient truth, they may perish and the secret will be lost forever.
This is Brown's fourth book, a "formula book that he had used in his three prior ones without being noticed. However, nothing like getting the raft of the Catholic Church and play with Its dogma to create a quick bestseller.
All of Brown's books are fun to read, and we thank the Church for discovering a talented young man who had a great idea. There was even a copyright suit that attracted more publicity, mostly for Raymond Khoury's The Last Templar.
Brown books are a fun read and they should all be read. I find that Angels and Demons was my favorite one
