Search - The Da Vinci Code (Robert Langdon, Bk 2)

Ignore the hype - this is FICTION after all...very interesting and action-packed story. Loved it!!!

Pure smut, but good, exciting, well-paced smut. It's gotten a bad rap from all the hype it's gotten and arguably the bad transition to movie, but let's remember that this is not supposed to be high literature in any form, nor is it to be a true account. That said, his books are very formulaic, but this is his best one I believe.

I persisted for about half its length but finally gave up. I didn't mind the pasteboard characterizations, and admittedly the plot twists were ingenious, but the constant stopping for mini-lectures was a pain. That and the continuous distortions of Catholic doctrine finally proved more than I could stand and still get any pleasure from the book.

Simply one of the best novels I have ever read. So rich and colorful. This book has its lovers and haters and you can mark me in the love category. Just couldn't wait to finish it once i started page 1.

I know that I am about 10 years late to the party on this book, but it will go down as one of the best I have ever read. True or not, I was so intrigued by the historical aspect of the plot. I remember there being a lot of controvercy surrounding the book when it came out, but I thought that it was so interesting how Brown opened the door to a different perspective on the doctrine of modern religion. Dan Brown is truly an exceptional writer.

I read the DaVinci Code before Angels & Demons and had no problem following the story. It is just as amazing as Angels & Demons. If you like history and art, this book is for you!
