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.

Not as good as Angels and demons or davinci code

Great reading as always in this series. Story was good and had usual dan brown feel. Ending could be better but still a fun listen.

Been there, done that!

Dan Brown brings more of the same. I love the references to historical places and this book makes me want to travel to Italy to explore the beauty and wonders. The story seemed to be stretched into much more than it needed to be. A few times it appeared as though the author was deliberately trying to twist the story and confuse the reader as to create an ending that the reader would not expect.

Entertaining

A few unnecessary ostentatious tangents from Dan Brown, otherwise a good thrill and entertaining. Be prepared for a lot of academic filler that takes away from the plot.

disappointing

Is there anything you would change about this book?

yes--no intrique as is dan brown's forte

Would you ever listen to anything by Dan Brown again?

would take a chance but inferno was a let down

Would you listen to another book narrated by Paul Michael?

yes

Could you see Inferno being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

would take a lot of creative leeway by Hollywood to make up for the contents of this book---even tom hanks name could not salvage this book---even tho tom hanks was never ever my first choice for the other brown movies

Any additional comments?

please, mr brown do what u do best ---this is not your best outing--sorely disappointing

another master piece by Dan Brown

great performance by the narrator and another astonishing well written novel by Dan Brown. the well descriptive of Florence, Vienna and the places are so vivid that I feel like I can imagine what's like standing there. of course, the suspens is always there. Highly recommend

Interesting story... Too much description

Would you consider the audio edition of Inferno to be better than the print version?

Yes, the audio version to better to the print one because it allows my hands to be free and I can carry it anywhere, listen to it everywhere.

What did you like best about this story?

The plot is the best thing about the story

Which scene was your favorite?

When Langdon runs away from the men clad in black after reaching Sienna's apartment

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

All hell broke loose

Any additional comments?

So much description in the story loses the reader. Also, I didn't like the part of the story where everything is revealed about the identity of each character and their role in the deception that was playing around Langdon. It was just too much.
