THE COMMENTARY:

AMONG THOSE THRILLERS I'VE READ, THIS IS PERHAPS THE MOST WELL-PLOTTED OF THEM ALL. DAN BROWN'S ABILITY TO MAKE THE READERS CURIOUS AND ENGROSS IS NO DOUBT, EVIDENT IN HERE.
AS YOU TURN ON TO EVERY OTHER PAGE, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO NOTICE THAT THE SUSPENSE AND THE ADRENALINE ARE ALWAYS THERE-WAITING TO SURPRISE YOU. WHAT'S GOOD ABOUT THIS BOOK IS, DAN HAS AGAIN USED HIS VAST KNOWLEDGE ABOUT SCIENCE AND RELIGION TO BE ABLE TO CREATE A WELL-CRAFTED CONSPIRACY. EVERY TIME YOU LEAF ANOTHER PAGE, YOU WILL, IN NO TIME, REALIZE HOW DAN BROWN HAS CAPTURED MUCH OF YOUR EMOTION, TIME AND INTEREST(THAT YOU CAN ALMOST FORGET YOUR SUPPER AFTER READING IT FOR 6 STRAIGHT HOURS!)
