Oh dear. I have casually enjoyed Dan Brown's other tomes; however, The Lost Symbol didn't even have that brain candy charm. Tense scenes were frequently interrupted by several page long asides of dubious relevance. The so-called science was hilariously awful and the end of the book suspense revolved in part around the fear that someone would exsanguinate through a “medical needle” placed in a vein in the antecubital fossa (i.e. venipuncture.) Luckily, that part was so ill-paced that the character was saved before I had to waste too much time screaming about how infeasible it was to be killed by an IV.
The core plot – many important men in Washington are Free Masons, a group that has left hidden symbols all over Washington DC and celebrates human life – was far less intriguing than Brown's other books.
Overall – this was in SORE need of an editor and a fact checker.
En realidad, este libro se merece un 3.8
Comencé a leerlo con muchas ganas y entusiasmo porque me pareció interesante y cautivador, pero conforme pasaron las páginas, se volvió terriblemente extraño y confuso. Mal'akh es un personaje al cual no comprendo del todo. Sus motivaciones son muy extrañas y con cuando la historia llega a su clímax, se vuelve aún más.
Lo que no me gustó es que la historia decayera en el final pues todo pareció sacado de un volante de ciencia noética. Sin embargo, reconozco que el autor se esmeró con este trabajo, aunque creo que no es el mejor de sus obras (al menos, de las que he leído hasta ahora)
I like this kind of story, even though there's a lot of silliness, and Robert Langdon is the most boring, pedantic thriller hero I've ever known.
