Also, its a shame that Brown has become almost a cliche with the predictability of his latest books, i thought Lost Symbol was one of the worst books ever, you knew exactly what was going to happen and a strong sense of deja vu lingered over the book.

Personally, I preferred Angels & Demons although as usual I was disappointed in the movie version and Tom Hanks is not one of my favourite actors

Well thats just my own personal opinion, you could have a different interpretation of it and end up loving it! Its just for me, i think that Brown should stop writing novels with the whole "mysterious code" theme, it has reached its natural end in my opinion. But check it out for yourself!PhotonicGuy wrote:Thanks StephenKingman for the post . I just wanted to grab me to read The Lost Symbol, but if you tell me that it is a predictable book, then I will think a second time.

The films were rather tame also.

this was truth about the 2 main characters and the story of Mary Magdalene turn everything in the book into a pagan christain religion book and the was also the main part that really make alot of people to read the book as well.........gloriana wrote:I thought it was good but not great. The thing that really annoyed me was the relationship between the 2 main characters- Sophie (?) was supposed to be intelligent but Robert had to explain everything to her like she was a simpleton. And that Mary Magdalene was supposed to carry on the church for Christ but somehow it turned into a Mary Magdalene worshipping religion in the book. That didn't make sense.
