5.0 out of 5 stars Great Thriller, 14 May 2009

By	Sunglasses - See all my reviews

This review is from: Angels and Demons (Paperback)

I decided to re-read A&D before going to see it at the cinema (I still think it is stronger than The Da Vinci Codewith more intrigue and suspense) I look forward to reading The Lost Symbol. Will be interesting to see how the 'parachute scene' is incorporated into the movie, which I am really looking forward to seeing. All in all this is an exciting thriller, mixing the mysteries of the Vatican and the world of Physics. Always interesting to read about the holes in the research but best just to switch off and enjoy as a good piece of fiction.From a Brit's perspective, If only Hollywood would have a go at Full Story Insideas well!

3.0 out of 5 stars Dubious Demons, 5 Jul 2004

By	fooxman "fooxman" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Angels and Demons (Paperback)

Since having grabbing my attention with the Da Vinci Code, I have become something of a fan of Mr Brown's books. However, reading Angels & Demons took away some of the 'magic' that had captivated me after reading the Da Vinci Code (DVC).

This book starts out alot slower than the DVC but once it gets going you're hooked as Robert Langdon races round Rome trying to find an (H)assassin before it's too late, the details and ambigrams in this book really did surprise me and I was once again sucked into the fantastic world of Dan Brown, his writing is truly refreshing (although his plots sometimes leave alot to be desired). While you could cast the niggling doubts you had about the plot in the DVC aside - due to the fact that it might just be possible - Angels & Demons pushes the reader too far in terms of what they can regard as plausible.

I'll try not to give too much away but falling 3 Miles into foaming water (no matter how much Dan wants you to believe that it's three times softer than standing water) especially when this water isn't an ocean (relatively shallow) you just really wonder whether Mr Brown wrote himself into a corner that he can only get out of by coming up with something incredibly dubious and highly unbelievable which totally spoils the book - unless you can read this part and then pretend it never happened :)

Despite my dislike at how the book arrives at its otherwise excellent conclusion (including a truly unexpected twist) I enjoyed Angels & Demons. Dan Brown really does research his books well and even if you don't subscribe to his views you still have to admire the detail he goes into in his book, the ambigrams alone are worth picking this book up for as i'd never seen one until i read Angels & Demons!

Recommended although it's a long way off the DVC.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, recommended to anybody, 11 Sep 2003

By	"alfboy" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Angels and Demons (Robert Langdon) (Hardcover)

I read this after reading the Da Vinci Code, and found it to be every bit as good. Less codes maybe(!), but great twists, a really complex but easily readable plot, Dan Brown is quickly becomming one of my favourite authors. His descriptions of the Vatican and modern Rome are superb and his research is clearly very extensive.
Despite being a clever book, steeped in religious & art history and a deeply twisting plot, it manages to stay fun and a real page-turner.

I would recommend this to anyone.
