  • Dan Brown Rules!

    “Inferno” was as intriguing to me as his first 3 featuring Robert Langdon were. I enjoy novels that compel me to go to the internet to learn something new. Every Dan Brown novel in the “Templar” series has motivated me to research further into various topics & even to visit places that are well described in the texts. Witness my recent trip to Portugal which included 2 Templar castles & to Spain to see the Templar church in Córdoba. Dan Brown has his detractors who criticize his lack of research accuracy or his writing style. I am obviously a part of the audience for whom he writes. Those who are disappointed by his books should seek another author. I eagerly await the delivery of my next Dan Brown novel.

  • Read book before movie release

    To get the most out of the upcoming movie "Inferno", read the book first! The movie will be that much more intriguing. To most who have not read "The DaVinci Code" prior to seeing that movie were a little lost and were not able to totally comprehend the plot, and therefore may have felt the movie was as great as the person who read the book prior to seeing the movie did. Highly recommend this author!

  • Inferno

    I have loved all of Dan Browns books including the books before Divinci Code. Life got busy and I did not take the opportunity to read this particular book. Now that the movie is coming out I have to read the book before it is released. I am a few chapters into it and Dan Brown's character Robert Langdon, does not cease to amaze me. Definitely a page turner!

  • Florence and Venice

  • Compelling page-turner

    Written in Dan Brown's typical style of intrigue & mystery. SO much better than his preceding novel in the Robert Langdon series, The Lost Symbol. That was a disappointment. This book continued the quality of daVinci Code & Angels & Demons. HIGHLY recommend this novel.

  • As good as the Da Vinci Code!

    Anyone interested in the magic city of Venice will love this book! There are descriptions of the ancient treasures of Italy and Turkey which are interspersed with facts that will delight any fan of historic architecture. The mysteries turn 180 degrees back and forth so that you are kept guessing as to who is the hero and who is the villain!
