Angels and Demons

A Novel

De: Dan Brown

Narrado por: Richard Poe

The explosive Robert Langdon thriller from Dan Brown, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Da Vinci Code, The Lost Symbol, Inferno, and The Secret of Secrets.

An ancient secret brotherhood. A devastating new weapon of destruction. An unthinkable target. When world-renowned Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to his first assignment to a Swiss research facility to analyze a mysterious symbol—seared into the chest of a murdered physicist—he discovers evidence of the unimaginable: the resurgence of an ancient secret brotherhood known as the Illuminati...the most powerful underground organization ever to walk the earth. The Illuminati has now surfaced to carry out the final phase of its legendary vendetta against its most hated enemy—the Catholic Church.

Langdon’s worst fears are confirmed on the eve of the Vatican’s holy conclave, when a messenger of the Illuminati announces they have hidden an unstoppable time bomb at the very heart of Vatican City. With the countdown under way, Langdon jets to Rome to join forces with Vittoria Vetra, a beautiful and mysterious Italian scientist, to assist the Vatican in a desperate bid for survival.

Embarking on a frantic hunt through sealed crypts, dangerous catacombs, deserted cathedrals, and the most secretive vault on earth, Langdon and Vetra follow a 400-year-old trail of ancient symbols that snakes across Rome toward the long-forgotten Illuminati lair...a clandestine location that contains the only hope for Vatican salvation.

Critics have praised the exhilarating blend of relentless adventure, scholarly intrigue, and cutting wit found in Brown’s remarkable thrillers featuring Robert Langdon. An explosive international suspense, Angels & Demons marks this hero’s first adventure as it careens from enlightening epiphanies to dark truths as the battle between science and religion turns to war.©2000 Dan Brown; (P)2004 Simon & Schuster, Inc., AUDIOWORKS is an imprint of Simon & Schuster Audio Divison, Simon & Schuster, Inc.

Reseñas de la Crítica

San Francisco Chronicle A breathless, real-time adventure....Exciting, fast-paced, with an unusually high IQ.

True Dan Brown Form

In true Dan Brown form you are lead through what seems an absolute impossible plot with an ending that is totally unpredictable. I loved the book and can't wait to see how the book is portrayed on the big screen. Dan Brown goes to great length with his research and knowledge of the Vatican City. Although parts of the book are beyond a believable plot in real life, I do read to be entertained and this book held my attention for all 18 hours of it. A great book and I highly recommend it.

interesting but long winded

Not a bad story but gets pretty long winded. When something is about to happen, it suddenly takes an hour of listening to get through 10 min of book time line.

just as captivating as the Divince

I read the DiVinci Code first, so I was annoyed at the initial similarities. But I found this novel to be just as incredible and the narrator is exceptionally good, which really makes this novel one of the best Ive listened to.

mind blowing

One of the best. the narrator was outstanding knew exactly when to get your attention. Can't wait for the next book

phenominal.

incredible story, read well. Serious plot twists. Dan Brown knows how to tell a great story.

Great Listen

The way the author describes women is rather pervy, but that's to be expected from male authors. If you can get past the uneasiness that causes its a pretty great listen.

Fantastic Story

I've read this book multiple times and once I start I never want to put it down. This book is the start of a wonderful series!

Great Listen!!

Sorry and read were great with very unexpected action!! I recommend it with full thumbs up!! Enjoyed listening!!!

Fantastic book!

My only negative is I wish the author had left out some of the sexual content. It was not necessary to use the detail that he did.

A great listen outside of that.

More than what I expected...

The only reason I listen to this audiobook just to compare it to the movie which I like very much. This book goes in to very good details little confusing why this book was first then the da Vinci code.Overall great book recommended looking forward to the second book
