What do you think about Dan Brown's latest book - The Lost Symbol? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 95/100. divkris (763)2 months ago

Did you really get lost while looking for the symbol. I feel the title was a little misleading - it should have been the The Lost Word! Even though i like the way Dan Brown describes about the scene, character, background, etc., but somehow i feel this book had nothing big to offer. Da Vinci Code made me think but most of the scenes and conclusions were predictable.

I even heard many of my friends say that the book was a waste of time. Though i disagreed with them, i would say Dan is still in the Da Vinci (and his other book s) hangover. He was repeating many theories on science and spirituality, pyramid, Kryptos, etc.

I liked the book but i was expecting a little more after the Da Vinci success. Though i completely agree with the message Dan Brown conveyed, i think his next book should be a off beat. Good luck to him.

What do you think about this novel - The Lost Symbol.

Hi Kris!

I quite liked the book. Even though, the experience is not as good as The Vinci Code,I cannot deny the intricate knowledge that's being lent out. Dan Brown has always been fascinating with the intermingling of fact and fiction and I think he managed that in this book as well.

I think, the psyche of the readers work in different ways. That's the reason why some books are a hit and still not liked by many and viceversa. I appreciate your viewpoint. Did you like Angels and Demons? I am sure you have. But you know what I didn't quite! See, that's what I was talking about.

Happy reading!

I kow Dan Brown by his book Da Vinci Code. I want to read that book badly. I also heard about his latest book 'The Lost Symbol', but I haven't read any reviews about the book. I have a friend who is a fan of Dan Brown. She give me latest updates about Dan Brown and his books. I will see if I can download an ebook for free.
