A Fun Read
I spent a Saturday reading this fast paced, fun read, that takes you on another Dan Brown whirlwind ride but this time, around the US Capital, Washington D.C., as opposed to some European city.
The author packs in the right ingredients with just the right amount of action and intrigue to keep you flipping the pages in fast succession. Whether or not the characters look like they (and the rather outlandish situations they subsequently find themselves in) were written with a movie in mind can be forgiven because, well, lets just say, they're easily identifiable with, on any number of levels, and leave it at that. Regardless, you will find yourself there with them and, if not rooting for them, at least enjoying gallivanting all over Washington's famous monuments, and seeing them in a new light.
Whether you like Dan Brown, or not, is beside the point. We all know he doesn't write great literature, what he does write is accessible, fun, though-provoking, fast-paced thrillers that are a thoroughly enjoyable read. You can't go to wrong with this one. If a fan already, I recommend you buy the hardback edition, if not, then wait for the paperback to come out. It's certainly worth skipping a couple of Starbuck's lattes to pay for. by Alexandra Wolfe
