Contrary to peoples believes ANGELS & DEMONS is NOT a continuation of The Da Vinci Code. In fact the events in this book happen BEFORE The Da Vinci Code. It also explores the mystique of religion, from a very different angle, and keeps you reading up to the end, with a lot of action and a LOT of impossibles... but it is very entertaining...

The end of the book is very disspointing, when one finds out that all the mysticism was not else but madman´s crazyness...

Still, very good read, and I hear the movie is really good, a must see movie.

Although quite a new reader to Dan Brown books, I loved this and the Da Vinci Code and looking forward to reading The Lost Symbol, also watched a couple of documentaries over Xmas, it really gets you thinking if there reall is something in what Dan Brown is saying

Phenomenol book. I thought it was much better than the Davinci Code. It kept me on the edge of my seat!

I must say that I have not had the opportunity to read the book but I did see the movie. After reviewing your comments I believe that I will read the book to see what was left out of the movie.

Storyline

The explosive Robert Langdon thriller from Dan Brown, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Da Vinci Code and Inferno—now a major film directed by Ron Howard and starring Tom Hanks and Felicity Jones.

An ancient secret brotherhood. A devastating new weapon of destruction. An unthinkable target. When world-renowned Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to his first assignment to a Swiss research facility to analyze a mysterious symbol—seared into the chest of a murdered physicist—he discovers evidence of the unimaginable: the resurgence of an ancient secret brotherhood known as the Illuminati...the most powerful underground organization ever to walk the earth. The Illuminati has now surfaced to carry out the final phase of its legendary vendetta against its most hated enemy—the Catholic Church.

Langdon’s worst fears are confirmed on the eve of the Vatican’s holy conclave, when a messenger of the Illuminati announces they have hidden an unstoppable time bomb at the very heart of Vatican City. With the countdown under way, Langdon jets to Rome to join forces with Vittoria Vetra, a beautiful and mysterious Italian scientist, to assist the Vatican in a desperate bid for survival.

Embarking on a frantic hunt through sealed crypts, dangerous catacombs, deserted cathedrals, and the most secretive vault on earth, Langdon and Vetra follow a 400-year-old trail of ancient symbols that snakes across Rome toward the long-forgotten Illuminati lair...a clandestine location that contains the only hope for Vatican salvation.

Critics have praised the exhilarating blend of relentless adventure, scholarly intrigue, and cutting wit found in Brown’s remarkable thrillers featuring Robert Langdon. An explosive international suspense, Angels & Demons marks this hero’s first adventure as it careens from enlightening epiphanies to dark truths as the battle between science and religion turns to war.
