A Good Read  |
|
I read Angels And Demons about a month ago. It is a very well written book with a good pace. Definitly better than The Da Vinci Code. Although this book is also concerned with Catholism, it has a better story line and pace. It is not too fast nor too slow. It maintains a good pace and never really slows down.
However, it is a bit far fetched that a Harvard scholar can jump off from 100 feet and land only with broken bones. Was that Robert Langdon, or Spider-man?
I recommend this book to every Da Vinci Code fan. You'll love it. But a better read would be Deception Point.

| 2. swetarawat13 (46) | 3 years ago | It is certainly a better book than the da vinci code. and you are right about the fact that the story never slows up, it maintains its pace and reader gets tied to it to the end. One more thing is there that it's plot has got sudden twists which keep the interest of the reader. And com'on, when he jumps he falls on the water not on flat surface, so how can he have broken bones?

| Sameer_Paranjape (15) | 3 years ago | I agree. But if he fell from 500 meters, he has to reach the surface because of the sheer velocity of the fall.

3. GnosticGoddess (3490) | 3 years ago | I thought it was a really great read as well. I agree with you on all points. I have often said it is a better book than The Da Vinci Code. I just hope when the movie comes out the compliment the book well. I didn't like the movie for the The Da Vinci Code.
I haven't read Deception Point. Is that by Brown? What is it about?

| Sameer_Paranjape (15) | 3 years ago | Yes. Well Deception Point is on a different topic altogether. It's about the games politicians play to win the elections. It's much better than these two.

GnosticGoddess (3490) | 3 years ago | I might have to check that out! I know how shady our politicians are/ can be.

5. ginagee (431) | 3 years ago | I heard a lot about the Da Vinci code when the film came out but I never saw the film or read the book because there was so much hype about it! I did however read Angels and Demons and thought it was a great read, it just didn't slow down. sure some of it was a bit far fetched but then in a book like that it can be forgiven, surely?! I'm worried though that the film would not be able to keep up with the book and would be disappointing as I find most films after books are. I'd much rather use my imagination than have it there in front of me from someone elses mind!!! Now that you've mentioned Deception Point I'll look out for it, thanks.

6. jlara_gtr34 (1809) | 3 years ago | definitely better than DVC. and it won't get on the nerves of those who don't understand what the da vince code is really about. anyway, yup, it does have a nice continous pace for the duration of the book. read it in one day as well.
