Summary: The best book I've ever read
Review: This book was AMAZING! I finished it in only a couple of days (I'm an active college student) and I wanted to read it all over again! This book was so thrilling, and what a page turner! It also makes me rethink the way I look at modern symbols now, and has really turned me on to cryptology and art history.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Enlightening!!
Review: This book was amazing. It made me think and question and wonder. It was rivoting. Although the topic is not a light one, the book is an easy read with twists and turns that will keep you wanting more. I started it one Sunday morning and literally did not put it down all day. I read all but 80 pages in one sitting. This is worth your time. Do yourself a favor and keep an open mind when reading this book...anything is possible!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Unbelievable
Review: This book was an easy read, thankfully, or I would have given up. It so is full of such nonsense presented as "researched, documented, historical fact" that it was really hard to stomach. The anti-Catholic bias of this nonsense reaches ridiculous proportions. I mean, come on: for the last five centuries we have been taught that the Catholic Church was evil precisely because it had PERPETUATED goddess worship in the form of the cult of Mary and the saints. Now we are supposed to believe that the Catholic Church is evil for exactly the opposite reason, that it SUPPRESSED goddess worship? I guess any stick will do, when the game at hand is Catholic-bashing. But the most disturbing thing about all this is the book's popularity! Thanks to Dan Brown, psychiatrists in North America can look forward to to treating yet another generation of "the Catholics are out to get me" paranoid delusionals.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great book
Review: This book was an excellent work that I couldn't put down!!! I really enjoyed Dan Brown's writing style as well and am looking forward to reading some of his other books. I recommend this book to Everyone!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Average, at best
Review: This book was average, at best. It was so hyped- I was prepared to read a great mystery. It failed on three counts: 1) the suspense: The mystery thread of the book was sophomoric at best. I was solving the codes well before the "symbologist" and "code breaker" were cluing in... it was obvious where the book was going- no suspense. 2) The writing: sophomoric as well. Dan's writing style is very simple- I guess to reach a broader audience? For those who read a lot and appreciate good writing, reading this book was slightly painful. 3) The "religious" aspect: regardless of what you believe, his "facts" and the way he presents them are so flimsy and vague. I would question anyone who said this book changed their life or made them question their faith. Really? Come on now... anyone that reads this book with any discernment can see through his facts that stretch miles to link up to equally vague facts. Chalk it up to fiction.

I only give this book two stars because it appears this guy did some research and if nothing else, will prompt the reader to do a little research of their own. Don't waste your time and money. Or at least buy it used if you must.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Truly amazing.
