.. You won't be disappointed. I personally enjoyed this Dan Brown religious murder-mystery more than that other one (
maybe you've heard of it?). I'm just upset it was such an engaging, quick read because now I'll have to find another book to hold me over during a business trip next week to Denver.
A&D follows Harvard Symbologist Robert Langdon in a thrilling twist of events to help the Vatican figure out why an ancient scientific brotherhood, the
Illuminati, has killed a top
CERN physicist and stolen the research institution's secret project -
antimatter. The thief has strategically placed the cannister containing this interesting substance, which is much more powerful that nuclear technology, somewhere within Vatican City - a ticking time bomb underneath the Church's headquarters.
Accompanied by agile Italian physicist Vittoria Vetra, the daughter of the murdered scientist (who also was a priest!), Langdon seeks a path of illumination to uncover the truth behind the secret society, the Catholic Church and the mind-boggling implications of antimatter.
For the lazy out there,
the movie version comes out May 15, 2009. But you know what they say about book adaptations - they never quite look as good on the silver screen as they did in your head while reading. Now,
GO READ A BOOK!
