Books / Angels and Demons
« on: July 04, 2005, 01:18:10 PM »
I just finished a book that I really enjoyed. I’m not too sure that there is wide appeal for this book here, but I thought I’d throw a comment out and see what comes back!
"Angels and Demons" by Dan Brown was written before "Da Vinci Code", and is a great deal less controversial. The book features the same main character as "Da Vinci Code", Robert Langdon, a religious symbologist from Harvard. In this book, Langdon is trying to track down the Illuminati to prevent an attack on the Vatican.
The book is fast paced, edgy, and interesting to me, a bit of an academic. There are many quirky plot twists that garnered authentic surprise. All in all, a great read for a long summer day.
Has anyone else read this? Thoughts?
