It was kinda good, although not the best. I love the A.I. in the story, but it is pretty creepy….. Plot was similar to the others…just that this time we ‘travelled’ to ??. 3.5 out of 5.
My thoughts: I enjoyed the book, start to finish. It had action, art and intrigue. It was a fun ride. The storyline was new and lent thought.
Now for the personal preferences: I did catch most of the way through who sort of did what. Way too many clues. It didn’t really give Langdon much to have to figure out and he did it so quickly, it’s like there wasn’t much of a challenge. The “twist” was not much of a twist really once you get to the end.
Finished Origin last week. Totalling disliked my time spent reading it. His premise was like a tour guide, set up on historical buildings in Madrid and Barcelona. This book is about getting his themes out against the Catholic Church. No spoilers,but there is truth in that a close family friend who joined a cult, donated money, closeted, not allowed to see a son who went to see his mother in mentioned church. Serious authors have more credence than Dan Brown.
Loved it.
I wasn’t impressed, not my favourite, very slow.
A really good book.
I thought it was Rubbish – His worst book yet!!
What didn’t you like? The storyline?
Storyline was slow and really farfetched
It was crap.
Made me want to visit Spain
Me too!
yeah, its not that good as much of his previous novels. its just okay.
wanted to like it and it was fine except predictable.
Meh.

I put it down. Slow start. Apparently I wasn’t feeling it at the time
I’ve never finished a Dan Brown book.
Review it please
Loved it from start to finish
Liked it. Not as good as his others.
Not up to the standard set by earlier Dan Brown books.

I loved his other books, but this one just confused me. I guess I’m just not very into the whole concept.

I agree Carlton. I was so disappointed. At least his other books were fun. This one…eh.
I’ve bought it a month ago. Haven’t read it yet. Will start next year probably! In January or in February!?
Yikes. I guess our comments aren’t making it sound too good. You have to read it and make your own decision! Let us know what you thought.?
I couldn’t get into it
I am going to continue the rest of The Lost Symbol.
Again, not as much fun as the first two…
