The Da Vinci Code

A Novel

De: Dan Brown

Narrado por: Paul Michael

While in Paris, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is awakened by a phone call in the dead of the night. The elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum, his body covered in baffling symbols. As Langdon and gifted French cryptologist Sophie Neveu sort through the bizarre riddles, they are stunned to discover a trail of clues hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci—clues visible for all to see and yet ingeniously disguised by the painter.

Even more startling, the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion, a secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci, and he guarded a breathtaking historical secret. Unless Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle—while avoiding the faceless adversary who shadows their every move—the explosive, ancient truth will be lost forever.

Robert Langdon returns in The Lost Symbol, Inferno, Origin, and The Secret of Secrets (coming soon)!

Great story but even better bcuz of the narrator

I had personally read the book before a few years ago and this time around I wanted to give the audio a try. It was absolutely more amazing the second time around more so because I really enjoyed Paul Michael! He brought each character to life.

A fun read but don't take it seriously

I loved the book and the reader was excellent. His ability to change his voice as he moved from character to character enhanced the listening and kept my attention. As to the book, the codes were simplistic and the author's understanding of the content of Nag Hammadi books erronious, to say the least. If you don't take the author seriously and enjoy this as a work of fiction, you will have a good time.

Very intruguing and well writen

This title seems apparent to me a medium used by Dan Brown (the author) to explain and divulge some of his personal thoughts and theories without writing a theological book. While if written in a theological book of sorts it may cause a giant contraversy, in a fiction book it can be written off as nothing more or less than fiction. However, regardless of personal belief this is an outstanding book and is highly recommended. Not only does it tastefully reveal theories on the holy grail, di vinci, and the priory of sion. It also keeps you constantly going "now what"? If you enjoy conspiracy in any sense of the word, this book is a must for you.

The Da Vinci Code

Captivating and informative! Nice piece of Fiction..

Another murder, another code.

Here we go again. Robert Langdon is in Paris this time one year after Rome, and there is another murder, and an odd code that Langdon must solve. This will take him on another quest from Paris, To London, and Scotland. This time though he is running from the law. The french authorities have made him their prime suspect. This is another favorite book of mine in the series. This is full of action, and this, in my opinion is like a Sherlock Holmes novel. We have a murder in which the victim has branded himself with a code, and of course what is a Dan Vrown novel without the church involved as well. The book is fast paced, and will keep you listening without wanting to stop.

Fantastic Listen

An all around great listen. I highly recommend this audiobook to anyone who wants to listen to an excellent story.

Incredible!

Simply fanastically well read, with an increadible range of voices and accents.

TAKEN AT FACE VALUE

I APPROACHED LISTENING TO THIS BOOK WITH A QUESTION MARK IN MY MIND BECAUSE OF ALL OF THE CLATTER ABOUT ITS TOPIC.........BUT, THIS IS NOT THE HEART OF THE BOOK ITSELF. THE STYLE IN WHICH THE BOOK IS WRITTEN IS THE VERY REASON THAT THERE IS AUDIBLE.COM...BEING ABLE TO LISTEN TO THE ENUNCIATIONS AND PRONUNCIATIONS WITHIN THE BOOK WAS INVALUALBE...THIS IS A GREAT FICTION WORK....NOW I AM READY TO SEE THE MOVIE...THANKS AUDIBLE.

Good Fun

Great read. Just when you thing you figure it out it throws a curve at you. Parts of it are quite predictable but some parts will surprise you. If you are extremely religious and are offended by what a christian would term 'blasphemous' then this book isn't for you. But for the rest of you it is a good read.

The Da Vinci Code

I really enjoyed this book in audio. The narrator did an excellent job. I couldn't wait to listen to more. I think I enjoyed this audio better than reading the book. It was a great 'who done it' with a lot of questions concerning true Christianity. I loved it!
