About this product

Product Information

One of the bestselling novels of all time, Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code has intrigued and thrilled millions of readers around the world. Now all the artwork, symbols, architecture, and historic locations--over 160 images--are beautifully compiled in this full-color collector's edition. A mind-bending code hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci. A desperate race through the cathedrals and castles of Europe. An astonishing truth concealed for centuries... unveiled at last. 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, a baffling cipher found near the body. As Langdon and a gifted French cryptologist, Sophie Neveu, sort through the bizarre riddles, they are stunned to discover a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci-clues visible for all to see and yet ingeniously disguised by the painter. The stakes are raised when Langdon uncovers a startling link: 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. Langdon suspects they are on the hunt for a breathtaking historical secret, one that has proven through the centuries to be as enlightening as it is dangerous. In a frantic race through Paris, and beyond, Langdon and Neveu find themselves matching wits with a faceless powerbroker who appears to anticipate their every move. Unless they can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle, the Priory's secret--and an explosive ancient truth--will be lost forever. Instantly catapulted to the top of the bestseller lists around the world, The Da Vinci Code is simultaneously lightning-paced, intelligent, and intricately layered with remarkable research and detail. From secrets embedded in the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper , to the symbols of ancient Egypt, to the architecture of landmarks such as the Louvre, Westminster Abbey, Rosslyn Chapel, and more, this fully illustrated collector's edition delivers the complete reading experience of Dan Brown's riveting novel--from the opening pages to the unpredictable and stunning conclusion.

    Big art in a BIG BOOK

    This is a WONDERFUL format for this book! The print is large and artistically arranged on each page. Being able to SEE what Dan Brown is writing about is invaluable. This is a great book.

  • Junk literature - tastes great, less filling

    This is the Hostess CupCake of modern literature. The plot was spit out of a factory, the story is adorned with superficial enhancements and its definitely not good for you. Regardless of these apparent shortcomings, you will absolutely enjoy every single bite/page. The Dan Brown Plot Factory - read one and you've read them all. Digital Fortress, Angels and Demons, Deception Point. They are formulaic to a flaw. I was lucky enough to have read Da Vinci Code first but if you have read his other books first, do yourself a favor and wait till the movie comes out. You'll be disappointed by the predictability of the plot and the similarity of the heroes / heroines. Superficial Enhancements - there are an endless supply of useless nuggets of information sprinkled through this book. Like ...

  • Illustrated Da Vinci Code

    I bought this as a gift for a friend, but I've read the book before, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Though there are some major historical flaws and theological assumptions made that are incorrect, it was a very interesting book that kept me turning pages. The fact that it's illustrated is a major bonus, because it shows/depticts art, sketches, diagrams, etc. that are crucial to understand. Having the illustrations right there on the page makes the book much more fun and easier to follow when Brown describes a painting or historical artifact, etc. Very good.

  • This is a must read book for everyone!

    This is an amazing book that you will not be able to put down. I was riveted from page one until the end. Having the illustrated version is imperative and so worth the money. I read the book w/o illustrations the first time and loved it but it is absolutely unbelievable with the photos. I am not catholic or an expert in art history but this book really perked my interest because it is fast paced and so well written. The facts used by the author about the religious art and themes were so real and fact based that one cannot help but sit and ponder all that the author brings to light. It is a book that at the very least will keep your attention and make you ponder the accepted wisdom. I higly recommend this to each and every one of you.

  • To me, an amazing book

    As I have been reading on previous reviews, yes, it lacks personality (all Dan Brown's books have the same structure), it lacks scientific base. But, on its favor, I have to say that it hooks you and you just can't put it down. Like a user said, its about ENTERTAINMENT. Dan Brown never pretended he was revealing the real story about Jesus, neither the dirty laundry of the church. I think the church and religious people have made such a big deal about this book not because of what it proposes, but because of what it questions. Think about this, as you read the Code... how many times have you wondered "well, and who can PROVE me it did not happen this way?" I did a good couple of times. What I mean is, with real and ficticious pieces of information, Dan Brown came up with a book so well ...
