Rips off Arturo Perez-Reverte's writing style and plot points.
The 2nd book in the series, but the first movie to be made, The DaVinci code follows a similar line of religion vs science vs conspiracy theory as the first. In many ways I liked how many different parties there were in the conspiracy for this one, each with their own motives. The slow draw out in what could have been ended faster left me waiting a long time for the next shoe would drop.
This book was amazing! I loved the twists and turns through the story, and it made it to where I never wanted to put the book down!
For anyone that loves adventures or treasure hunts, along with religion, this would be a fun and exciting!
