I absolutely loved that book. Too bad I can't watch it tonight, you will all have to fill me in. If you liked the book, I also recommend Angels and Demons, the prequel to the Da Vinci Code. It deals with corruption in the Vatican, ancient satanic groups, conclave, and WMDs. I'd stay up for hours at a time reading it, although at times it seems to follow the same formula as the Da Vinci Code. IP: Logged |

I've already watched a couple of programs on the History Channel about it. I'm not a fan of Dan Brown's writing, but the books are interesting nonetheless. In that 'they're so bad they're good' way. I'm also just a big fan of religious history.IP: Logged |

I thought the DaVinvi Codes was non-fiction. Its actually a novel. Sounds good though IP: Logged |

It should be nonfiction lalalinda, as it would be a better book if it were, but the fast-paced formulaic plot sells it. It's a bit like an educational cartoon. Which I guess in the long run is okay, if it's actually going to teach you something. IP: Logged |

I havent read any of Dan Brown's other books, so I don't know if he is a good writer. But I thought the story surrounding the facts that was raised in the book was a little weak. The most enticing aspect was the alternative story of the holy grail; a story I've never even heard of before.I'm definitely looking forward to the movie. I imagine the opening involving the professor, if done well, will be grand. IP: Logged |

I liked all Dan Brown's books. I read DaVinci Code first then went back and read the others. Demons and Angels, Digital Fortress, and I especially liked Deception Point -- I couldn't put the darn thing down!IP: Logged |

Hi you all here, it is a great Book. Ron Howard ( Parenthood) makes a Movie about right now.Sadly, he takes TOM Hanks for the Main Part. I think he is not competent for these Role.Butnow about the Book from Dan Brown. The German Title of the Book is " SAKRILEG*** The book has a lot to do with " Gooberz"" who has it recognize too ??? It is also very Interesting to make the numerolgy analysed for this Book Bye for now Marie muske IP: Logged |
