Publisher's summary

#1 WORLDWIDE BESTSELLER • Harvard professor of symbology Robert Langdon awakens in an Italian hospital, disoriented and with no recollection of the past thirty-six hours, including the origin of the macabre object hidden in his belongings.

“One hell of a good read.... As close as a book can come to a summertime cinematic blockbuster.” —
USA Today

“A diverting thriller.” —
Entertainment Weekly

With a relentless female assassin trailing them through Florence, he and his resourceful doctor, Sienna Brooks, are forced to flee.

Embarking on a harrowing journey, they must unravel a series of codes, which are the work of a brilliant scientist whose obsession with the end of the world is matched only by his passion for one of the most influential masterpieces ever written, Dante Alighieri's The Inferno.

Dan Brown has raised the bar yet again, combining classical Italian art, history, and literature with cutting-edge science in this captivating thriller.

Great book.

He did it again. Right when I thought I had the storyline figured out he turned left and made it different. Good story, good characters (some less weird this time, which is good) and good visualization.

not like the movie, it has kindness

I loved this book's kindness, there are all these dangerous plots and insidious characters, but none of it is really true. the intentions of the antagonist, though horrible, are even still done with kindness at its heart. there was no true malice of suffering and hatred. This rounded out the character, made me sympathize and feel for the antagonists intentions, it even softened the story arc of the female companion. I was blown away with how thought out the heart of the antagonists was executed. Despite the antagonist's villainy, I understood and though am not entirely on his side, I didn't feel too bitter about the result of the story and the antagonists goal. also, the good guy didn't win in the end, but the apocalyptic images of fire and brimstone was not what happened. I appreciated the kind ending. the movies do not get the philosophy behind the meaning of the end of Inferno and I get it, the kind ending doesn't sell box office tickets.

Would be a good book if you had visited Italy

What did you love best about Inferno?

The ending chapters

If you’ve listened to books by Dan Brown before, how does this one compare?

Not as good as his prior books - too much inconsequential details

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

reaction was i was glad it was an audio book to be listened to on a long trip. Do not think I would have finished reading a hardcover version
