Dan Brown's mystery writing skills are shown off in the Da Vinvci code. Robert Landgon goes around the Vatican trying to solve many cryptic messages, including ones involving Da Vinci. The best part about Dan Brown’s writing is that it keeps you guessing until the very end. His chapters are short and allow for a page turner of a book because each chapter takes the story to one of three different settings. The only bad thing about this book is how hard it is to put down. This book also …

Back in high school, I was the member of a book club, and some of our older members had recently become aware of Dan Brown’s works and suggested that we all read The Da Vinci Code together. Not being much of a connoisseur of the arts, the Mona Lisa clipping on the cover didn’t do much to intrigue me, so I was very skeptical of enjoying this book.       Dan Brown is now one of my favorite authors… From the very first chapter, I was hooked. The excitement …

It's a good novel with lots of twists and turns as long as you don't take it too seriously.

Manipulate facts with fantasy is bad, build up a heresy is low blow. One of the biggest offenses that make thousands of empty minds believe that is true. Dan Brow is very good at writting suspenses but he is also one avid atheist and he sent his message in this book.

meh... I guess it was a decent story, but doesn't live up to the height... or the controversy.

interesting yet far fetched view of Christianity. Will keep you on the edge of your seat. Keep an open mind when reading and try to solve the riddles before the characters! :)

I loved this book. It was a bit tough for me in the beginning, only because there was so much French at the beginning, but it has become a favorite of mine.

It's well paced, provocative and by all means an entertaining fictional novel :-)

Interesting, complex, and a thrilling read... Until you realize it's all just a long fable meant to trick you into believing that censorship is what's best for us when the truth is too hard to handle.

I was extremely unimpressed with this novel. It seems like Brown just vstrung together a bunch of sight seeing tours into a novel. He added a weak protagonist and a ridiculous story too. Very unhappy with all of Dan's work and the hype surrounding this dreck.

Great book loved it and although the movie took it lumps I liked it as well. Even with Tom Hanks' bad haircut.

While this novel may get berated due to its popularity and sub par cinematic adaptation, it is actually quite a fun read.  I read this book on vacation and it only lasted me two days!  It takes the reader to cool European locales, and is thought provoking as well.  While the main character is not a secret agent or swashbuckler, Robert Langdon is very witty and likable.  All in all, this book is highly recommended.

It's easy and enjoyable as a lecture, although there is place for doubt and cotroverse in the facts. Eh, well, it's fiction after all. :))

dan brown is one of the most intelligent, and compelling story tellers of all time. while i was reading this book it had such detailed informationg that it made me, in my head, start to believe all these legends and stuff. very action packed, full of religious propaganda and war. very very interesting read.

I loved this book when I first read it, before the movie came out. I remember commenting that 'I wish I could read it again for the first time.' Instead, I read his other books and realized that he is very formulaic and, though I'm always entertained, it's gotten easy to see who the 'bad guy' is in every book.

A fresh perspective on the extremely tired Catholic point of view on Jesus.

Dan Brown cannot write to save his life. It was painful getting through this book. The movie was significantly more enjoyable, because I could watch the story unfold without having to read the terrible prose.
