Utter Tripe - By: G. Downs, 05 Nov 2008 
I read this only to find out how bad it is & it is very very bad indeed. I couldn't care less whether the supposed facts are fictitious but i don't believe i have ever read worse prose (H.P. Lovecraft at his worst could run him close though). It reads as though he had "how to write fiction" manual open beside him & many sentences made me laugh out loud. I despair that when hundreds of thousands of people decide to read they choose this. Brown before starting writing recorded an album of love songs sometime back in the 1990's, it may well be the worst pop album in history but he would make a better pop star than a novelist.
Not as good as I was lead to believe - By: Derob Ecnirp, 10 Oct 2008 
I know that, with the 1000+ reviews this book has, this review is pretty pointless. But, for reasons explained by many other reviewers, I found this book absorbing, & the only thing that kept me turning the pages was so I could back up my arguments :D. I didn't find it to be difficult to tell what was going to happen, which wrecked the mystery element I was told it had. It, quite frankly, is written badly, which ruins it as a thriller. And Dan Brown is constantly adding random snippets of information in the form of flashbacks, something that constantly annoyed me as I didn't reallly want to hear about the main character teaching a classroom of children about things when I'm reading the "thrilling" bit. Just a bad read & waste of time.
A brilliant thriller based on facts - By: Q, 25 Sep 2008 
I am quite sure this book is based on historical facts & I have heard the author did alot of research before writing this book (although I don't know that for a fact, from the references in the book & my previous knowledge of the subject, it seems highly likely).
I had already read about the life of Jesus Christ not through the eyes of the Bible & this book only confirmed what I had read.
It doesn't matter whether you believe in the facts or not, it is still very interesting to know a different point of view & wonder.
I simply couldn't put this book down. It's a thriller full of suspence & mystery & it is wonderfully told.
From the beginning the adventure starts & it is action-filled alll througout, you're always wondering what's going to happen next.
It is simply one of the best books I have read for long time.
I highly recommend it.
Please people, don't encourage him! - By: Blackarrow, 10 Sep 2008 
The Da Vinci Code
Please, please, PLEASE! Don't buy Dan Brown books, you're just encouraging bad stories & bad writing!
I found the characters shalllow, the plot obvious & if it wasn't for the fact it the papers picked up on him saying that Jesus had decedents (hardly a new idea), it would have sunk without a trace & we would have mercifully never heard of Mr Brown.
Still not his worst book, that prize has to go to Deception Point.
Well done Dan, now stop it.
