Angels & Demons

I thoroughly enjoyed this read. It's the same author as The Da Vinci Code, as a matter of fact it's the same main character in this prequel. This time Langdon takes on The Illuminati and the Catholic church. Like Brown's Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons is filled with historical facts entwined with pure fiction and the lines between the two a blurred wonderfully. While reading this book I thought how much more interesting this book would make into a movie. Perhaps even more so than The Da Vinci Code. In the spirit of not giving away the ending. The ending of the book is a vigorous thrill-ride with a surprise ending and argument that truly brings one to think. Is science proving the existence of God or is it making God obsolete? A good question, right?

Agreeing with you, I liked this one better than Da Vinci as a read and I think it could be a much more exciting film.

I loved the wrestling match between science and religion, how one tries to define and defile the other.
