“A pulse-quickening, brain-teasing adventure.” —People

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.

Movie and book are just great

I only really started “reading” for pleasure because I work at a publishing company doing video of all things.

So when I got into audible, I didnt know where to start so I started with books that I knew were movies that I had enjoyed.

This book for the for the most part is scene for scene with the film and I love that but had I not seen the film I think my opinion wouldn’t change.

If you like conspiracies, which aren’t that unbelievable by any means, you’ll enjoy this story.

Also, you’re welcome for this 10+ year late review.

This will make you THINK

EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT BOOK !!! Absolutely the BEST book Dan Brown has written. The story that carries the information regarding Jesus and Mary is EXCITING and INTERESTING. It definately has made me question my own beliefs. I don't see how anyone with an open mind can not consider the information put forth by Dan Brown. It's kinda like when you were a child growning up and your parents made you think they were perfect. Then, when you were grown, you found out revelations regarding their past that were not perfect. I think the information is sorta like that. We've been fed a perfect story, and now the truth has come to light.

Great Performance!

Paul Michael does the best job bringing these characters to life.
The story is so interesting and I can’t wait to read it again.

The da Vinci code

I have truly found a new author love Dan Brown and his interpretation of symbolic symbolism found the Audible book thrilling and exciting experience five stars and two thumbs up.

Fun take on some Art History

The Da Vinci Code is where my enjoyment of Dan Brown and Robert Langdon began. Probably like most, I found my way to the book because I enjoyed the movie. If you started with the movie, I can say the book doesn't disappoint and the movie stayed fairly true to the book.

This was my second read through after many years and I enjoyed the book just as much this time through. I really enjoy all of the art history and symbology that is involved in the story.
