“Impossible to put down.... Another mind-blowing Robert Langdon story.” —The New York Times

Famed Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon answers an unexpected summons to appear 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 Dan Brown's most terrifying villain to date.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[I]mpossible to put down....Mr. Brown was writing sensational visual scenarios long before his books became movie material. This time he again enlivens his story with amazing imagery....Thanks to him, picture postcards of the capital's most famous monuments will never be the same....In the end it is Mr. Brown's sweet optimism, even more than Langdon's sleuthing and explicating, that may amaze his readers most." ( The New York Times)
"Thrilling, entertaining....Robert Langdon goes for another roller-coaster ride - this time in a hunt for a Masonic treasure in Washington, D.C." ( Los Angeles Times)

SUPER DUPER STORY AND NARRATION

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, family and/or friends. It's just a great over-all thriller.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

It kept me on edge; I could have stayed up all night (first book I have ever kept me wanting to hear the next part. GREAT!

Have you listened to any of Paul Michael’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, I've never heard Paul Michael until this time. I KNOW I'll look for his name whenever I buy another book. He's really GREAT.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

No. I was very smoothly done throughout.

Any additional comments?

I sure hope that I'll hear more Paul Michael in the future. Dan Brown will be on my top 10 list to read more of his works.

Less violent and thrilling

If you want to listen to an audio book that is less violent, thrilling, and scary than Dan Brown's other books, this audio book is the one I would recommend to you. I am not saying that Dan Brown has lost all his writing magic, but I am saying that Dan Brown has changed his style of writing. Although you could expect the whold story just by listening the first part, the story was very good.
