Books
WOW...
Blockbuster perfection. An exhilaratingly brainy thriller.
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.
--Janet Maslin
THE NEW YORK TIMES
A new master of smart thrills.
A pulse-quickening, brain-teasing adventure.
--PEOPLE MAGAZINE
This is pure genius.
Dan Brown has to be one of the best, smartest,
and most accomplished
writers in the country.
--NELSON DEMILLE
Thriller writing doesn't get any better than this.
--DENVER POST
This masterpiece should be mandatory reading.
Brown solidifies his reputation as one of
the most skilled thriller writers on the planet with his best book yet, a compelling blend of history and page-turning suspense.
Highly recommended.
--LIBRARY JOURNAL
Exceedingly clever.
Both fascinating and fun...a considerable achievement.
--WASHINGTON POST
A heart-racing thriller.
This story has so many twists -- all satisfying, most unexpected
-- that it would be a sin to reveal too much of the plot in advance. Let's just say that if this novel doesn't get your pulse
racing, you need to check your meds.
--SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE
A thundering, tantalizing, extremely smart fun ride.
Brown doesn't slow down his tremendously
powerful narrative engine despite transmitting several doctorates' worth of fascinating history and learned speculation, "The
Da Vinci Code" is brain candy of the highest quality -- which is a reviewer's code meaning, ''Put this on top of your pile.''
-- CHICAGO TRIBUNE
One hell of a read.
A gripping mix of murder and myth.
--NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
An international chase...a quest...codes within codes. Brown's novel is a pager-turner...
and you'll never view "The Last Supper" the same way again. Favorable review.
--THE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR
Dan Brown's conspiracy-theory thriller is the pulp must-read of the season...an ingenious
mixture of paranoid thriller, art history lesson, chase story, religious symbology lecture and anti-clerical screed, and it's
the most fun you can have between the sort of covers that aren't 300-count Egyptian cotton.
--SALON.COM
One of the finest mysteries I've ever read.
An amazing tale with enigma piled on secrets
stacked on riddles.
--New York Times bestselling author, CLIVE CUSSLER
Far more than the average thriller.
Intellectually satisfying...page-turning suspense.
--HOUSTON CHRONICLE
