Rating:  Summary: Robert Ludlum for Thinking Folks Review: This is superb page turner with a lot of "food for thought" added in. An action novel that makes you think. No wonder it has been a best seller for so long.
Rating:  Summary: For puzzle, numbers, and mystery lovers Review: This is the best book I have read in a long time! I loved the way Brown intertwines a great mystery thriller with puzzles and history. From page 1, this is a page-turner. I had to keep forcing myself to put it down to get anything else done. I recommend this to people who love puzzles, number, history, and mysteries. Don't be scared off by the religious themes - the possibilities explored in this book are fantastic and well worth the journey.
Rating:  Summary: Simply Wonderful! Review: This is the best book I have read in MANY years, and I read lots of books. There is something to learn on every page that will boggle your mind and keep you wanting more. I find it fascinating that one man could store so much knowledge in his head! NO ONE will come away from this book lacking anything, only wanting more!
Rating:  Summary: The best book I've ever read Review: This is the best book I've ever read. It was both suspenseful and simultaneously educational. What a great way to convey information about art and religion that may otherwise bore the average person. I could not put this book down and I was sorry when it was over. I am looking forward to reading more Dan Brown novels.
Rating:  Summary: Still Thinking about it--weeks later!! Review: This is the best book I've read since Angela's Ashes. I totally recommend it.
Rating:  Summary: The DaVinci Code Review: This is the best book that I've read in 20 years or more. Dan Brown is amazing, intelligent, and a superb writer. I read several books a week and none come close to this man's overall skills. I stayed up all night to finish it. Rarely do I find something that captures my attention so completly. The book is a historical novel intertwined with a murder mystery - a combination that works well. If you can read just one book this year, this is it. I'm looking forward to reading his other books and have just ordered them. Dan Brown, you are my hero!
Rating:  Summary: Could Not Put It Down.... six ( 6 ) stars, if available! Review: This is the best intellectual thriller in a long time. This book has it all....murder, mystery, religion, art history, and puzzle solving. I immediately went to danbrown.com to check out the actual photos of the places and paintings he discusses in his novel. I've recommended this one to all my friends. Don't wait for the paperback! For a terrific murder mystery in paper-back, read Freeman's MURDER IN KEY WEST... it's got it all, as well.
Rating:  Summary: Fascinating Read Review: This is the best thriller I've read in years. Dan Brown presented a fascinating idea in a quick paced plot. I can't wait to read the earlier books on this subject.
Rating:  Summary: You Must Be Kidding Review: THIS is the book everyone's talking about? You're kidding me. I've read at least a dozen mystery/thrillers this year better than THE DA VINCI CODE. The plot - about a religious sect seeking to keep an ancient secret hidden - comes right out of a Saturday morning cartoon. And the characters are about as believable as an honest politician. I saw where the story was going from the first couple of chapters - most intelligent readers will too. It just goes to show you that popularity isn't everything. Antelope Jones
Rating:  Summary: Supreme Review: This is the book that stimulates learning in many forms. It forces a reader to contemplate beliefs and understandings on religion, politics, history, geography, mathmatics, art, technology, truth, lies, secrets and wisdom to name a few. The book is impossible to put down. Dan Brown is the ACE of authors. I recommend that everyone read this book. This is an expertly written book that will be discussed for a long time. It inspires a reader with a quest for learning that continues after you finish the book. See if you can finish the book without researching the art of DaVinci. It will be one of many things you will want to learn more about.
