Synopsis
A sequel to ANGELS & DEMONS, THE DA VINCI CODE starts off with a bang and doesn't quit, leaving the reader gasping to keep up with the twists and turns of this amazingly popular academic thriller. The naked, spread-eagled corpse of a senior curator is found in the Louvre's Grand Gallery, next to a mysterious message written in his blood. The discovery and the subsequent investigation plunge Harvard professor Robert Langdon into the heart of a centuries-old religious conspiracy. Assisted by the brilliant and beautiful Sophie Neveu, a French police cryptologist who also happens to be the curator's granddaughter, Langdon races to gather clues about an ancient goddess-worshipping cult--purportedly once led by Da Vinci himself--whose members hold the key to one of the most sacred legendary objects, the Holy Grail. Meanwhile, the couple must dodge both the police, who believe Langdon guilty of the curator's murder, and an albino assassin from an extremist Catholic sect who is desperate to prevent Langdon and Neveu from uncovering a secret that could rock Christianity to its very foundations. THE DA VINCI CODE is a blockbuster bestseller that has gained legions of fans around the globe; the extremely obsessed can even take a special tour in Paris that points out all the key locations in the storyline. The book also has many detractors who say they have found significant flaws in the religious and historical research upon which it is based. The debate reached such a fever pitch that the Vatican even appointed a Cardinal responsible for refuting the book's claims. The controversy has only increased the book's popularity, producing a whole host of imitators as well as several books and videos purporting either to further explicate or to poke holes in the THE DA VINCI CODE's plot and historical background.

Publisher's Note
While in Paris on business, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon receives an urgent late-night phone call: the elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum. Near the body, police have found a baffling cipher. While working to solve the enigmatic riddle, Langdon is stunned to discover it leads to a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci -- clues visible for all to see -- yet ingeniously disguised by the painter.

Langdon joins forces with a gifted French cryptologist, Sophie Neveu, and learns the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion -- an actual secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci, among others.

In a breathless race through Paris, London, and beyond, Langdon and Neveu match wits with a faceless powerbroker who seems to anticipate their every move. Unless Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle in time, the Priory's ancient secret -- and an explosive historical truth -- will be lost forever.

THE DA VINCI CODE heralds the arrival of a new breed of lightning-paced, intelligent thriller…utterly unpredictable right up to its stunning conclusion.

Industry Reviews
"In this gleefully erudite suspense novel, Mr. Brown takes the format he has been developing through three earlier novels and fine-tunes it to blockbuster perfection."
(03/17/2003)

"Dan Brown's novel is an ingenious mixture of paranoid thriller, art history lesson, chase story, religious symbology lecture and anti-clerical screed, and it's the most fun you can have between the sort of covers that aren't 300-count Egyptian cotton."
(03/27/2003)

"[I]f this novel doesn't get your pulse racing, you need to check your meds."
(11/16/2003)

      Low in substance, high in entertainment

    For those who like reading entertaining books, The Da Vinci Code is for you! This book is full of suspense, action, and historic trivia. You are left riveted and in suspense as you follow the plot. Some argue the book is historically inaccurate and portrays religion incorrectly. No matter what your side of the story is, the book is entertaining, hands down. That said, Dan Brown offers an interesting perspective on religion, its history, and the implications of its role in our lives. Whether or not you agree with his point of view, it is an interesting perspective. In addition, Brown puts together the plot and leaves a trail of clues that even Sherlock Holmes would be proud of!

    As a sequel to Angels and Demons, it mirrors the style exactly. If you haven't read Angels and Demons and you enjoy The Da Vinci Code, then you must read the prequel as well!

    From what I hear, the movie is going to be a disappointment for those who read the book.

      Great Bathroom Reading
    Review created: 10/25/05(updated 12/15/05)

    The downside:
    This book is thick. Like really thick. Like almost 500 pages thick.

    The upside:
    This book is divided into ~50 chapters. That means 10 pages per chapter. For all you people who like to think you've accomplished something (like getting through a chapter), this is great news. This means that you can get through at least 1 chapter and sometimes much more if you are busy laying a bomb in the bathroom. Hence, this is great bathroom reading.

    The review:
    I am not a literary genius but this book must have been really good if I actually finished it.

    I've read about 1 book in the last 2 years. OK, maybe 2.5 years. My attention span is pretty short (borderline ADD). My philosophy is if someone can't get to the point in less than 2 minutes, it's probably not worth knowing about. This applies to verbose writers of thick books as well. Besides the ugly yellow and black covers, Cliff's notes are too long. Why can't all books be summed up in 3 bullet points?

    The Da Vinci Code has a good plot and I believe you qualify as "erudite" if you say you've read it.
