Great stuff to look at in DC but weak plot.

I finished this 500+ page book in 7 hours, typical Dan-Brown-can't-put-the-book-down type of action adventure. That being said, I had great expectations for the story considering how good both the DaVinci Code and Angels and Demons were, but unfortunately it was sub-par in comparison. On a positive note, I am finally able to make sense of the various Masonic symbolism I've seen in my life! I'd rate it a 3 out of 5...

This book has all the components to be called A Modern Classic! I havent read the phenomenal Da Vinci Code but could easily understand this novel as only few things have been referred from it. You will find a spellbinding and extravagant twist in every chapter which will make your imagination run wild!!! Dan Brown has woven an intellectual plot with an extravagant aura. This sinister mystery is worth the money! Go buy it!

A MUST READ..!!!
ONCE AGAIN THE MAESTRO IS BACK WITH A NEW BOOK OF HIS. I BET THIS ONE WILL NEVER LET YOU PUT THE BOOK DOWN. THROUGH THE STREETS OF WASHINGTON, YOU ARE FORCED TO IMAGINE THE PLOT AS A ONLOOKER. JUST WHEN YOU THINK,"FINALLY I UNDERSTOOD WHAT THAT SYMBOL MEANS", HE'LL MAKE YOU WONDER WITH EVERY TURN OF A PAGE, "WHAT NEXT..???"
THE CROWN FOR THE BEST STORY TELLING REMAINS AS IT IS WITH HIM. OTHERS WILL HAVE TO WORK HARD TO GET IT FROM HIM. DAN BROWN ROCKS.
I RATE IT: 5 OUT OF 5..!!
