The Da Vinci Code

The book equivalent of a cold, sugary soft drink. It can be refreshing sometimes.

While in Paris on business, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon receives an urgent late-night phone call: the elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum. Near the body, police have found a baffling cipher. While working to solve the enigmatic riddle, Langdon is stunned to discover it leads to a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci -- clues visible for all to see -- yet ingeniously disguised by the painter.

Langdon joins forces with a gifted French cryptologist, Sophie Neveu, and learns the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion -- an actual secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci, among others.

In a breathless race through Paris, London, and beyond, Langdon and Neveu match wits with a faceless powerbroker who seems to anticipate their every move. Unless Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle in time, the Priory's ancient secret -- and an explosive historical truth -- will be lost forever.

THE DA VINCI CODE heralds the arrival of a new breed of lightning-paced, intelligent thriller…utterly unpredictable right up to its stunning conclusion.

I fear me and my mom are now going to read the whole series. Why do they always use Robert Langdons government name. Learned hella about religion and art and the grail

A mystery layered with art, symbols, and secret societies. Gripping from the first page, pure page-turner energy.

The DaVinci Code

Kept me on my toes throughout AND I learned so many interesting tidbits about the history of Christianity, Leonardo da Vinci, etc. 

Alicia Evans

It took me so long to read that the reveal of the true mastermind was quite a surprise to me, but otherwise I found this a rather boring and simultaneously thrilling book. Quite the oxymoron.

The stakes are raised when Langdon uncovers a startling link. The late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion - an actual secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci, among others. Langdon suspects they are on the hunt for a breathtaking historical secret, one that has proven through the centuries to be as enlightening as it is dangerous. In a frantic race through Paris, and beyond, Langdon and Neveu find themselves matching wits with a faceless powerbroker who appears to anticipate their every move. Unless they can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle, the Priory's secret - and an explosive ancient truth - will be lost forever.

Desearía que las películas hubieran salido en orden, eso es lo primero que pienso después de terminar este libro. Continua el estilo del anterior y al ubicarse de forma diferente en lo temporal, hay cosas que toman otro cariz, otro sentido. Interesantes escenarios y mezcla de verdad con ficción. Como siempre digo y dije de la película, no hay que perder de vista que es una novela. Me siento atraída a los intelectuales, pero aun así un poco exagerados los encantos del amigo Robert. Aunque es posible que mi mirada este condicionada a que en las películas, es interpretado por Tom Hanks.

Sarah Sammis

There are very few surprises in the Da Vinci Code to anyone who has read enough thrillers and knows a bit of art history and yet it is a thoroughly enjoyable, albeit, equally silly book. If only Langdon would learn to sit down, shut up and have a good think, he could have saved himself a lot of time and energy. Each and every clue has an easy answer and a complicated one. Most of the book's weight comes from always having to do things the hard way.

To future readers, pay attention to what Landgon babbles about and how scenes are described and you too can solve the mystery in about 150 pages and then wait another 450 for the main characters to play catch up with you. :)

this book chose a controversial topic as the central theme, so it was an exciting read. each page has enough suspense that helped me to finish the book. how dan brown depicted the female characters was what stopped me to rate this book higher, since it was quite contradictory with the message he tried to convey. 

El código Da Vinci

Vicky  Nuñez 

Tengo una confesión: Nunca me gustó el código Da Vinci, ha decir verdad no he visto ni la película, pero al verme frente una copia de este gran Bestseller he decidido que nunca es demasiado tarde y a pesar de dos películas y otros dos libros he decidido leerlo, y ¿saben qué? Me encantó.

Robert Lagdon descrito como Harrison Ford en traje de tweed es un historiador estrella en el mundo y gracias a una muerte se encuentra atrapado por misterios y códigos en la búsqueda del Grial Sagrado. Lleno de referencias de la Iglesia Católica, El Código Da Vinci es una verdadera obra que te deja indagando hasta el último segundo y realmente merece toda la celebridad que ha recibido.

Así que les recomiendo a todos que lean este libro lo más pronto posible!

Isabella 

it's a fiction book that feels so real?? all the historical explanation made it feel real. it brings up a lot of questions about the church. it deals with controversial topics which makes it very intriguing. a bit boring at times, but overall, i enjoyed it!

Fun, addicting and fast paced, but the plot is so corny and little predictable at the end 

Emily Akerman

lightning paced, exciting, and mysterious, dan brown's the davinci code was a thrilling read! it enhanced my appreciation for the utter master that is leonardo davinci, religion + history, and puzzles, all with a suspenseful murder mystery backdrop! i had other plans yesterday when i finished it but ended up spending the WHOLE day reading this page turner because i couldn't put it down! some parts of the storyline (plot twists) were predictable but other components were utterly surprising making you compelled to finish. this book is one i would want to read before going to paris, as it was beautifully described, and if there's one thing that it struck me with is that "history is written by the victors."

Il codice Da Vinci

Virginia L

Datemi della pazza, ma penso che questo tipo di libri debba esistere. Per iniziare, per aprire l'appetito-lettura. 
Purchè si riesca a liberarsene.

everyone has their cup of tea, and this is mine. i love the way layers upon layers of actual art, architecture, and history were woven into his works (yes, i am aware that all these are all very factual) and despite, his books basically being bible/history fanfic with a symbology professor oc, i really do enjoy seeing the layers and clues unravel as the story goes on. the way i was so gagged upon the revelations in this book, had me googling every single reference mentioned.

It was a book i read ages ago. Where the gripping codes and puzzles to solve are my pique interests in that moment. Truthfully, i believe Dan Brown books are books that you can't hate. Books that are well read in any levels of ages. It was a nice read. and, is a nice read.

took me a while to get into. To differentiate between the Italian cultures in the first book and the French in this one. As soon as they started talking about the last supper painting i was hooked til the end. Lots of shocking twists I had no idea were coming.

Robert Langdon recibe una llamada en mitad de la noche: el conservador del museo del Louvre ha sido asesinado en extrañas circunstancias y junto a su cadáver ha aparecido un desconcertante mensaje cifrado. Al profundizar en la investigación, Langdon, experto en simbología, descubre que las pistas conducen a las obras de Leonardo Da Vinci... y que están a la vista de todos, ocultas por el ingenio del pintor. Langdon une esfuerzos con la criptóloga francesa Sophie Neveu y descubre que el conservador del museo pertenecía al priorato de Sión, una sociedad que a lo largo de los siglos ha contado con miembros tan destacados como sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo o el propio Da Vinci, y que ha velado por mantener en secreto una sorprendente verdad histórica. Una mezcla trepidante de aventuras, intrigas vaticanas, simbología y enigmas cifrados que provocó una extraordinaria polémica al poner en duda algunos de los dogmas sobre los que se asienta la Iglesia católica. Una de las novelas más leídas de todos los tiempos.

I watched the movie before read this book. But book has more details that I didn't understand well. Narrative is awesome.

Briar's Reviews

I read this book (which is the second in the Robert Langdon series) first, and it was truly amazing! While I usually don't read books out of order, I picked this book up before Angels and Demons and I wanted to start into it right away. Reading them out of order doesn't ruin the novels and contains no spoilers other than a few personal relationships that Robert Langdon has.

This book was an amazing, epic, truly inspiring novel. It changes your view on everything around you, including artwork and television and building designs. It gives a wonderful insight to many topics that aren't openly discussed or noticed.

I could not put this book down, and I wish Dan Brown had more books floating around the book stores for me to pick up! This book is a unique gem and I love it! I need more books like these around that have short chapters, constant action, unpredictable twists and turns and characters that are intriguing.

I must admit I did pick the novel up just so I could go watch the movie when it came on television, but I should have picked the book up just because the book is so epic and astonishing!

Five out of five stars! There isn't much I can say against this book other than that it's a long read (but a quick one!).

Langzaam werf ik door de boeken van Dan Brown, maar dit boek was een redelijke tegenvaller. Het boek voelde langdradig aan en er leek geen einde aan te komen. Alsof het Bernini Mysterie een goede start was en er toch nog meer boeken moesten komen.

Ik had er eerlijk gezegd meer verwacht na al die verhalen over het boek.
