Customer Review of Angels & Demons
A true barnburner!
Next to Britt Gillette's "Conquest of Paradise", this is the best book I've read in a long time. I'm a first time Dan Brown reader but I'm hooked! I stayed up all night and didn't quit until I finished, blurry eyed and sleepy. I found myself believing every word and had to stop and remember that it's just fiction! I was amazed at the inside information about the Vatican (especially the library), and I finally got out a map and books from my trip to Rome to see if I could find all the churches. Anti-matter, illuminati, choosing a pope - all of it was fascinating. When I finished, I had to laugh thinking about the fact they never ate, slept or made comfort stops and neither could I. The ending was a total surprise! Anyone who enjoys non-stop action and information shouldn't miss this one.

A page-turner's page-turner
For all the criticism that gets thrown Dan Brown's way, he sure knows how to write a page-turner!

Brown has struck on a basic formula that he executes to near-perfection -- it has worked in the three Brown books I've read - Deception Point, Angels and Demons, and The Da Vinci Code. Start with a prologue that shows or implies a horrifying death. Introduce the hero/heroine as a smart, single, attractive committed professional, and drop him or her into a fish-out-of-water scenario for which he or she is perfectly trained. Introduce sinister characters, including one anonymous character who appears to be pulling all strings from behind the scenes as well as his henchman, a lethal killing machine. Toss in some technological marvels with compelling explanations and a plot to perform nefarious deeds on a grand scale, and you've got a hugely successful novel as you keep tossing your hero/heroine (and an attracive, conveniently single member of the opposite sex) from frying pan to fire.

Brown's two Robert Langdon novels benefit from the unusual expertise of the hero - religious symbolism. Brown has an amazing ability to write clearly and convincingly about what must be daunting subject matter, and in Angels and Demons he gives a wonderfully compelling travelogue of Vatican City and its famed collection of art and architecture. Brown also introduces a powerful element of the spiritual in this book, as we are thrown into the medeival feud between church and science.

For those who critique Brown's works as factually inaccurate, I advise a step or two back for some perspective. The man is writing novels to entertain and, to a much lesser extent, inform. I have friends who are really, really into sharks, and they claim to hate the movie, "Jaws" because a shark would never a million years do what Spielberg has that shark do. But they miss the point of the flick! Brown is essentially doing the same thing -- setting a thrilling tale amid an exotic setting. A few inaccuracies (or even more than a few) should not interfere with the exercise.

Readers of thrillers will probably guess at the ending a few pages in advance . . . but that's because Brown compels you to guess. That's the heart of any good mystery or thriller -- the author essentially dares you to try and figure out what's going on, and then tries to jerk the rug out from under your expectations. In this, Brown does yeoman's work.

Perhaps Brown is a victim of his own success; he has been savaged by many, many readers. Unfair, I say. This is one of the most entertaining books I've read in some time.

I love all of Brown's books. Great reading!
I had to laugh at the few low ratings by raving zealots. If you are a person, that has always asked "too many questions," this book is for you! Whether you are a Philosopher, Theologian, or Agnostic, this book is a welcome addition to your fiction collection. This book makes you think, so Fun-dam-entalists should probably skip this one. Right or Wrong, this book will get your wheels turning...which is all that really matters, right?

As a voracious reader, I have read the best. "Angels and Demons" is a heart-stopping thriller that keeps you turning pages until you arrive exhausted at the end. You're truly "in on the chase." Improbable as it seems, Dan Brown has combined nuclear physics and antimatter with Renaissance art, old Rome and the Vatican. You conjure up the images in your mind, but the icing on the cake is Brown's Web site, which shows you the CERN facilities, the plane and then the exquisite artwork of Bernini and others as well as a peek inside the Vatican. It's a book that teaches, makes you think, and entertains, all at the same time. Few authors can accomplish that.

If you are open minded and looking for those books begging for its pages to be turned...look no further. Read 'Holy Blood, Holy Grail,' and ANYTHING by Ken Follett! I just read a copy of Edgar Fouche's 'Alien Rapture,' which also blew me away. Fouche was a Top Secret Black Program 'insider', whose credibility has been verified over and over. Another fun book is Brad Steiger's 'Werewolf.' I also really liked Dan Brown's 'Angels and Demons.' Want to be shocked, check out Dr. Paul Hill's 'Unconventional Flying Objects' which NASA tried to ban.

For those who say this book goes against their beliefs and their dogma, consider this: The tip of the iceberg: Numerous authorities who had noted the errors in the K.J.V. such as William Kilburne (1650's) 20,000 errors, John Wesley (in 1755) 12,000 changes in the New Testament alone, the Revised Version of 1881 consisted of 36,000 errors and on and on. The NIV, RSV and The Living Bible are also replete with thousands of errors. Do some research!
