Not done yet, but as usual Dan Brown tells a thrilling story, easy to follow, sometimes fun - but with holes. Weak spots in his plot spoil the suspension of disbelief. For example: how Sexton’s assistant gets back in line after having witnessed Sextons betrayal and knowing about the financing of his campaign. And how can she enter a fully secured NASA-building? Etc etc.
The oceanic eruption at the end is too spectacular, almost silly.
Good plot twist near the end, though.
3 for credibility, 4,5 for telling a thrilling story.

Good plot. Somewhat too long, or rather, nothing much changes in the case for too many pages.

Fantastic author, but could not stomach the subject matter. DNF.

Terribly well written, dazzlingly good actually, but plotwise it’s boring. And I want to read good stories, not just great sentences. So I ditched The Nix at around 50%.
