Famed Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon answers an unexpected summons to deliver a lecture at the U.S. Capitol Building. His plans are interrupted when a disturbing object—artfully encoded with five symbols—is discovered in the building. Langdon recognizes in the find an ancient invitation into a lost world of esoteric, potentially dangerous wisdom.

When his mentor, Peter Solomon—a long-standing Mason and beloved philanthropist—is kidnapped, Langdon realizes that the only way to save Solomon is to accept the mystical invitation and plunge headlong into a clandestine world of Masonic secrets, hidden history, and one inconceivable truth . . . all under the watchful eye of a terrifying enemy.

Excelente lectura, actuación y producción auditiva.
Cómo siempre Robert Langdon nos lleva un laberinto de revelaciones y homicidios relacionandolo con iconografias de mitos y leyendas de las sociedad secretas antiguas.

Captivating Ready.

It was a good mix of suspense and history. Great interplay between good and evil.

Great Book

I loved this book. It is great like all books written by Dan Brown. Must read!

The Learning Experience

I love Dan Brown’s stories. What I like most about his books are all the things I learn. And I like that he broaches subjects that can be so controversial - religious beliefs, technology and are some really good for us, and as in this book, the mysterious stories surrounding the Masons. He brings so much to light, and I think I use the Internet more than any other time when I read his books. I want to see the buildings he talks about, the cities and the countries and the art and books he discusses. As I said, I think the thing I like the most about is how much I learn about so many things. The narrator for this book was great. The work that must be involved to access so many voices, some I know would be so hard to do - like Ms. Sato (sp?) the CIA lady who smoked way too much. And the expressions and changes in the mood are expressed so well. Mr. Brown’s characters are also - well, I feel like I know them so well by the time I close the book. And in this book there were so many things put forth that are things many of us should think about rather than just rely on the myths and gossip that surround them - some new and different views of so many things that are part of our lives today. And was I surprised to find out why the monstrous villain had so much hatred for the Solomon family. WOW! This is a book I would recommend to just about anyone I know. And people I don’t know.

Not the best

Even with all the research this story is not a good one. Too strange bad guy, lots of interesting information and is overdone.
