I first read Dan Brown’s novels when I was in High School, right before The Da Vinci Code exploded and was everywhere. I actually read all four of his books before they even considered making a film or the Da Vinci Code had been on the bestseller list for however many record-breaking weeks it was there for. I’ve always enjoyed them because of their conspiracy theory vibes and ties to history.
Now I’m not sure about the factual basis of the book or even the conspiratorial basis of the book, but overall I enjoyed it as a light read to pass the time. We once again found ourselves with the middle-aged Harvard professor Robert Langdon tied up in a beyond the ordinary, generally unbelievable sequence of events that reveals a seemingly earth shattering concept. This novels dealing with the Freemasons and the various traditions and legends associated with them.
