I've only heard good things about the book. I bought it, but I let my friend borrow it because I'm reading something else at the moment.

I got the audio CD version and I'm a little more than halfway through. If you're not into mystery, then don't read it. A lot of it is revealed through facts and you have to infer quite a bit in the beginning or you won't understand it. I like it so far though.

I read it when my mom was reading it for her book club. It's a fantastic book, and if you can get into that kind of thing, I'd definetely suggest you read it, it's a real "page turner" kind of book. It creeped me out a bit but I couldn't put it down

I haven't read it but Digital Fortress was very good so you should expect good things from Mr. Dan Brown.

The onli thing is.. that most of brown's books are pretty much the same, so if you read one, you've basically read them all

QUOTE(EmeraldKnight @ May 19 2004, 1:11 PM) The onli thing is.. that most of brown's books are pretty much the same, so if you read one, you've basically read them all i agree! in every book, there's always the smart, attractive professional that later falls for his attractive female accomplice. and in every single one of his books, the first chapter starts with a murder. and the plots are all very similar too. if you're looking for a greate page-turner type of book, read dan brown. but if you're looking for some REAL literature with some real substance, stay far away from Dan Brown. |

Personally, I don't see what all the hype is about. I read it and it didn't catch my interest at all. I actually had to force myself to finish it.
I would recommend reading it though, considering I'm probably one of the few who actually disliked it. |

A lot of the stuff that is in the book is made up. I would strongly advise against adopting the book as fact.

I finally read the book and I found it rather interesting. It had such cliffhangers at every chapter so I just had to keep reading.

I've heard it's a good story, but it's poorly written in terms of things like grammar and structure.
I guess I am led to believe it's like the Harry Potter books: good stories, but poorly written. |
