No, and I'm not going to. I can't get past his appalling no-research "science".

Even science fiction needs to _sound_ as if it might work, and he's presenting stuff which is allegedly understood physics, and getting it completely wrong.

Dan Brown is a filtered way to get the conspiracy out to the masses. It's a sub-par fiction that is really just an anthropology/investigative type of work. Rather than actually writing a thesis on the bloodlines of Jesus Christ, Dan Brown instead wrote a sensationalist fiction book and made millions of dollars but became instantly discredited. Tough choice between legitimacy and money.

Haven't read it yet, but my friend had pre-ordered it so once she's read it I will borrow her copy.

But having read Angels & Demons, DaVinci Code, Deception Point and Digital Fortress, I will bet you any money that the handicapped guy did it........<G>
 
I think Dan Brown's books are always good. If you liked any of the others, then there's a sign you should read the new one. I've just finished it, and it's very fast-paced and exciting, one of his best in my opinion.

The only reason anyone has a problem with him is because he wrote a fictional book about religion. I think he's a good writer. Christians just can't get over the fact he didn't mean anything by it; he said himself that the book is a work of FICTION.

Anyway, that's my two cents. Enjoy!
