Synopsis

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., #1 WORLDWIDE BESTSELLER - While in Paris, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is awakened by a phone call in the dead of the night.

The Da Vinci Code
This book IS entertaining! Reason? Mainly it highlights doubts, questions, and possibilities that alot of people now adays have thought about. It has great suspense and curiosity throughout once you get into it, it's a little hard to stop, especially the closer you get to the end! I have to say yes it is quite lengthy and like many good books, this book still does have many boring parts. The book would have been most excellent had Mr. Brown cut out the unnecessary extra details. It does highlight and centrally focus on religion, Catholicism, and if you don't know much about this area, this book will definitely fill you in! Only thing is you must take into account it is just a story and lot of recent publicity on this book and it's writer had just went over the deep end!! The big ... This book IS entertaining! Reason?

The book would have been most excellent had Mr. Brown cut out the unnecessary extra details. It does highlight and centrally focus on religion, Catholicism, and if you don't know much about this area, this book will definitely fill you in! Only thing is you must take into account it is just a story and lot of recent publicity on this book and it's writer had just went over the deep end!! The big stink over this book is how a story can raise such questionable doubt within religion. I feel all he did was make it known what alot of people had questions about for many years/ages that the religious community either failed to answer fully or will not answer truthfully. Again though, it is a book and solely for entertainment purpose! This book is very interesting and a definite must read even if it is long and takes you a month and a day! It does do a good job on descriptive details and excel in including the read in knowledgeable info on art history. COMPLAINT? The biggest complaint besides the length for most people is if your not into the book or an avid reader, you'll be lost!!!! This story jumps back and forth between the main characters and supporting characters quite a bit! Not only are you with one set of characters to another but you may be in another part of the country, and if your not careful about your reading you can easily get lost like I did! Which required me to re-read, ugh!! This will provide to be the most challenging part of this book! It took me 3 days to completely read this book, including the re-reading and having to reference to prior chapters, also having to pull out a dictionary to get proper pronunciations and definitions, his vocabulary is very large which also made it a more challenging read. This sorry is definitely worth your read, and then go watch the movie starring Tom Hanks!! As for buying, well I have the book, if your still not to sure, borrow it or just check it out at a book stand/bookstore/library. Thumb through and read the excerpts, if it intrigues you then it's wroth the read and buy, I thought so besides just the story and controversy behind it all. This story will probably be a definite historic collectible later on.

Great book but a total fabrication of reality
The word for "The Da Vinci Code" is a rare invertible palindrome. Rotated 180 degrees on a horizontal axis so that it is upside down, it denotes the maternal essence that is sometimes linked to the sport of soccer. Read right side up, it concisely conveys the kind of extreme enthusiasm with which this riddle-filled, code-breaking, exhilaratingly brainy thriller can be recommended. That word is wow. The author is Dan Brown (a name you will want to remember). 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. Not since the advent of Harry Potter has an author so flagrantly delighted in leading readers on a breathless chase and coaxing them through hoops. The first book by ... The word for "The Da Vinci Code" is a rare invertible palindrome.

Read right side up, it concisely conveys the kind of extreme enthusiasm with which this riddle-filled, code-breaking, exhilaratingly brainy thriller can be recommended. That word is wow. The author is Dan Brown (a name you will want to remember). 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. Not since the advent of Harry Potter has an author so flagrantly delighted in leading readers on a breathless chase and coaxing them through hoops. The first book by this onetime teacher, the 1998 "Digital Fortress," had a foxy heroine named Susan Fletcher who was the National Security Agency's head cryptographer. The second, "Deception Point," involved NASA, a scientific ruse in the Arctic and Rachel Sexton, an intelligence analyst with a hairdo "long enough to be sexy, but short enough to remind you she was probably smarter than you." With "Angels and Demons," Mr. Brown introduced Robert Langdon, a Harvard professor of art history and religious symbology who is loaded with "what his female colleagues referred to as an `erudite' appeal." No wonder: the new book finds the enormously likable Langdon pondering antimatter, the big-bang theory, the cult of the Illuminati and a threat to the Vatican, among other things. Yet this is merely a warm-up for the mind-boggling trickery that "The Da Vinci Code" has in store. Consider the new book's prologue, set in the Grand Gallery of the Louvre. (This is the kind of book that notices that this one gallery's length is three times that of the Washington Monument.) It embroils a Caravaggio, an albino monk and a curator in a fight to the death. That's a scene leaving little doubt that the author knows how to pique interest, as the curator, Jacques Saunière, fights for his life. Desperately seizing the painting in order to activate the museum's alarm system, Saunière succeeds in buying some time. And he uses these stolen moments — which are his last — to take off his clothes, draw a circle and arrange himself like the figure in Leonardo's most famous drawing, "The Vitruvian Man." And to leave behind an anagram and Fibonacci's famous numerical series as clues. Whatever this is about, it is enough to summon Langdon, who by now, he blushes to recall, has been described in an adoring magazine article as "Harrison Ford in Harris tweed." Langdon's latest manuscript, which "proposed some very unconventional interpretations of established religious iconography which would certainly be controversial," is definitely germane. Also soon on the scene is the cryptologist Sophie Neveu, a chip off the author's earlier prototypes: "Unlike the waifish, cookie-cutter blondes that adorned Harvard dorm room walls, this woman was healthy with an unembellished beauty and genuineness that radiated a striking personal confidence." Even if he had not contrived this entire story as a hunt for the Lost Sacred Feminine essence, women in particular would love Mr. Brown. With Leonardo as co-conspirator, since his life and work were so fraught with symbols and secrets, Mr. Brown is off to the races. Google away: you may want to investigate the same matters that Langdon and Agent Neveu pursu

The Da Vinci Code -
Very entertaining read. Great page turner with a great historical plot. It is a book that makes you think because it is an action packed suspenseful mystery. It gives the reader continous movement with side plots that all come together. It ends with a great question which the reader cannot answer. But one must remember that it is Fiction. Too many non-readers have the wrong conception about the content of the book from to much TV evaluation and speculation. If one is to believe Dan Brown - one has to change history with religion's greatest hero - Jesus. Many readers can get caught up in a transfer of re-writing history and to believe Brown's book as the truth. But is is still Fiction. However, it does make one read Angels and Demons if not read before the Da Vinci Code. Still a great ... Very entertaining read. Great page turner with a great historical plot.

I do not believe that the Movie will approach the full content of the book. It will likely be a disappontment to the book reader. However, it will be a Box Office Hit because of the great interest in the book.

No disembodied hand holding a dagger/knife in sight!
While reading "THE DA VINCI CODE" Dan's short-of-awful writing style kept getting in the way of enjoyment. However, after I started it I couldn't put it down. Because Dan repeated a falsity in his book I was familiar with I wrote a critical article for rense.com in 2004 and included photos. The article ("DaVinci, The Dagger & Bullcookies") is still at the rense.com archives but not the photos. Below is my article, edited for this review, and includes the rense.com webmaster's opening comments which I've also edited. Webmaster's comment: But this is not a review of The DaVinci Code, but rather an opportunity to lay to rest yet another absurdity which has arisen from the controversy generated by the book; that of the "dagger" in DaVinci's famous painting of the last supper.

Webmaster's comment: But this is not a review of The DaVinci Code, but rather an opportunity to lay to rest yet another absurdity which has arisen from the controversy generated by the book; that of the "dagger" in DaVinci's famous painting of the last supper. The following material from Edward Lopez is an excellent autopsy of this latest controversy regarding the dagger in DaVinci's painting... From Edward Lopez - May 3, 2004 I love a controversy as much as the next person. When it deals with historical facts, so much the better. Everyone is talking about Dan Brown's best seller "THE DA VINCI CODE." Certain historical facts are mis-represented in the book and the web is buzzing with these historical errors creating a mini-flood of books dedicated to pointing out Mr. Brown's erroneous ways. In his book one finds dialogue between the main character, Langdon, and his co-character, Sophie, where Langdon points to a certain detail in a copy of Leonardo da Vinci's painting "THE LAST SUPPER" and claims that one can see a disembodied, anonymous hand holding a dagger in a threatening manner. This is the latest mention of this so-called anomaly with another famous author making the same claim. In the 1994 book "TURIN SHROUD", by Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince, one finds on page 104 the claim of the disembodied hand holding a dagger in a threatening manner. Additionally, the authors add that a person would have to be "... a contortionist - in order to make the gesture anatomically possible. As it stands, the hand belongs to nobody at the table." The authors of these books have come to their conclusions because Leonardo's painting has deteriorated through the years, plus the over-painting that has also occurred in trying to save the painting. The last cleaning, in the '90s, revealed the true beauty of Leonardo's work but it also shows that the deterioration removed valuable details which the authors seem to have ignored in coming up with their ridiculous claims. There are a few websites where the above claims are rebutted by lay persons and religious scholars but they do not include photos or graphics to support their rebuttals. Leonardo knew what he was doing when he painted St. Peter holding a knife (used to cut the bread at the table). Peter's pose and position of arm and hand holding the knife is quite natural. I published a page (at WebTV) with photos showing the hand with knife from Leonardo's painting and also his sketch for that particular part of the painting, and photos of myself in a similar pose as St. Peter holding a knife to show that there is nothing mysterious about the hand holding a knife (NOT a dagger) as seen in the painting and to show you that the pose is quite natural. Enjoy my contribution to help end any further attempts at discrediting the genius of Leonardo da Vinci. (When I moved from WebTV to Cable the photos were lost.) (eBay ID: hunkadinka)

If you wish to be fastened to your easy chair anxiously turning pages, yet thinking - what you are reading is beyond whatever could be tenuously credible, yet unable to put the book down, then this might be the book for you. The Da Vinci Code is filled with plots and subplots. The exhilaration begins within the first few pages of the book and continues almost until the end at which time it became predictable. What a shame to write such a novel that stirs up millions of peoples’ emotions and beliefs, but lets you down at the very end. There are other writers who preceded Mr. Brown on the same subject, who are scholarly writers, by 20 years, one need only watch the History Channel to learn a little about those who wrote about Mr. Browns’ main plot in the manner in which Mr. Brown did, but ... If you wish to be fastened to your easy chair anxiously turning pages, yet thinking - what you are reading is beyond whatever could be tenuously credible, yet unable to put the book down, then this might be the book for you. The Da Vinci Code is filled with plots and subplots. The exhilaration begins within the first few pages of the book and continues almost until the end at which time it became predictable. What a shame to write such a novel that stirs up millions of peoples’ emotions and beliefs, but lets you down at the very end. There are other writers who preceded Mr. Brown on the same subject, who are scholarly writers, by 20 years, one need only watch the History Channel to learn a little about those who wrote about Mr. Browns’ main plot in the manner in which Mr. Brown did, but they wrote about it as being a theory -possible and in a scholarly way. What makes the difference is that Dan Brown wrote it as a work of fiction and wove plots and subplots, meshing his novel into something that people might possibly believe and most definitely either titillated or disturbing by readers. Dan Browns’ ability to illustrate concepts, weave plots and subplots in a manner in which the reader is drawn in without regard to reason makes him a master but of what is up to the individual reader to deduce. It offers up interesting points of view. He wrote The DaVinci Code as fiction, not nonfiction and as it is a work of fiction, may I ask, what has been the all the fuss? It is only one man’s stroke of the pen- which has ruffled many feathers and we have paid him well to do it.
