 okay November 21, 2009

I love dan brown's books and this one is okay. Not his best book. when the book is about the story it is exciting but when the book stops to tell you about history is becomes like reading a text book. Same plot lines as his other books.
 Typical Dan Brown Style November 21, 2009

I loved this book. It is a typical Dan Brown book where you couldn't put it down. I made the mistake of reading other reviews before reading the book and one person decided to tell us all about the ending...what an idiot. I guess he thought he was so interesting and intelligent that he kept going on and on about his borish opinion. While reading the book, I kept thinking about the ending. Luckily, it really didn't ruin it for me. I would recommend this book to those of you who loved the Di Vince Code and Angels and Demons.
 This is a disaster November 21, 2009

I really enjoyed Angels and Demons and the Da Vinci Code but the Lost Symbol is a disaster. If this had been his first effort, it would never have been published.
I can handle the writing style but feel that this story lacks substance and interest. Without giving anything away, there are a couple of climactic moments that totally fizzled.
The only reason I did not give this one star is that I enjoy the way he weaves history into his modern tales...just think this tale was forced and lacks interest.
Lost Symbol November 20, 2009

The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown was an ejoyable read. The short chapters and action made the book easy to read without losing the story line. The book drew you in and was difficult to put down. I was sorry when I finished the book because I felt like it ended abruptly.
Da Vinci Code was much better November 20, 2009

This had the same feeling as the Da Vinci Code, the way it was written and the way the story was structured. It felt like I was reading the same book, like it he took the cookie cutter mold of Da Vinci Code and just cranked out another book, only this one had an ending that I thought was very disappointing, especially given all of the build-up. I was expecting something pretty amazing and at the end I just felt "THAT was it??!!". 2 stars just for the effort, I guess. Not worth buying, though. If you read the Da Vinci Code and liked it then just pass on this one. Disappointed for sure! Though it did make me want to visit Washington DC. If they could take whatever facts about the city are true and put it into a booklet, that'd be cool to take on a vacation to DC.
