Has any one else read Angels and Demons i just finished it and it was one of the best books i have ever read?

Question

Dan Browns novel Angels and Demons

Answer 1

I competely agree with you, it was a real page turner

Answer 2

I got Angels & Demons at an Airport a year or so ago as I had nothing else to read. The 3 hour flight flew (no pun intended) as I couldn't lift my head from the book. Bought Da Vinci Code, Digital Fortress & Deception Point as soon I got home and also read those cover to cover in less than a week. Brown has a knack of capturing the readers attention and not letting go until the final page. Cannot wait for Angels & Demons the movie. Allegedly out in January 2008

Answer 3

Yes, it is a great book and better in my opinion than The Da Vinci Code, which in itself is a very good book. You should try Dan Brown's other books too if you haven't already, although Angels and Demons is by far the best the other books are definitely well worth a read.

Answer 4

I greatly enjoyed it too. If you haven't already, be sure to read Dan Brown's "The Da Vinci Code" also. Another author I would suggest is Arturo Perez-Reverte. "The Flanders Panel" and "The Club Dumas" have the same sort of mystery puzzle style as "The Da Vinci Code." If you like that aspect of it, you might also like Katherine Neville's works such as "The Eight" or Umberto Eco's works such as "The Name of the Rose." Reviewers have taken to saying that Neville, Eco, and Brown make a trio of good reading. If you like one of those authors, you will probably like the other two. Some other books you might like are "The Dante Club" and "The Poe Shadow" by Matthew Pearl and "The Rule of Four" by Ian Caldwell and Dustin Thomason. All of these books basically follow the same theme of a race to solve a puzzle by following scattered clues and they are all very well written.

Answer 5

I actually liked Angels and Demons better than Davinci Code. Try reading Deception Point by Brown it's one of his best.

Answer 6

After reading the Da Vinci code none of his other books were very good. They follow exactly the same plot line, but without the well worked out historical references, and thus the villain is predictable almost from page one let alone the outcome.

Answer 7

Personally, I prefered the Da Vinci Code. Don't get me wrong, they are both amazingly thrilling books to read, but there was something about The Da Vinci Code that caught me.



He is a great writer, no matter what anyone says.

Answer 8

Yes it is a great read.

The only thing with his books though, is that they all follow the same pattern and are quite similar in style.

Read 'Digital Fortress' after reading 'Da Vinci Code' and 'Angels and Deman's' and you'll get the feeling you've read it before...

Answer 9

I loved that book. I finished the Davinci Code and was looking for something else by Dan Brown and picked it up. I recommended it to all my friends and even bought it for my mother for Christmas that year. I thought it was more suspenseful than Davinci.

Answer 10

that was a great book! much much better than da vinci codes. i couldnt put angels and demons down and i read it in one day! they are making a movie of it. da vinci was good so i am hoping the angels and demons movie will be even better!

Answer 11

I read this book and think that was even better then the Da Vinci Code. Keep meaning to read his next one - Digital Fortress but just ain't had the time lol!



Wicked Book =)

Answer 12

I have actually read it three times and STILL enjoyed it each time. I thought it was absolutely fantastic - got to be one of the best written.



Read The Da Vinci Code - thought it was ok but Digital Fortress was dire - was disappointed.

Answer 13

I enjoyed it as well.... I thought it was very interesting and written intelligently but easy to read. I never understood why the DiVinci code was the one picked for best seller and movie.... Angels and Demons was better!

Answer 14

I enjoyed all of Dan Brown's books. EXCEPT for The Da'Vinci Code, which was a load of c##p and the film even worse.

Answer 15

no but i really must!

i am 15, and i read the da vinci code, and it must be my favourite book of all time.

but then i started to read another...i cant remember the name, about a code??...and i couldnt get into it.

but i heard that angels and demons is the really good one.

thanks for reminding me!!

Answer 16

I've not read this one yet, but I am looking forward to getting it soon.

You should try Digital Fortress, it is awesome. I liked it much more than The DaVinci Code.

Answer 17

Yeah it was great i started with davinci code and so enjoyed that one i read all the other three straight after i think he is a great writer from what Ive read so far.

Answer 18

I agree! I loved that book! I liked it more than the DaVinci Code! I couldn't put it down! My husband thought I was going to swallow the text whole!

Answer 19

The Illuminati does in fact exist, but the NWO theories surrounding them are false. There is no way Jay-Z and Beyonce could run the world.

Answer 20

Really enjoyed the book, but thought the bit about him falling out of the helicopter was very improbable

Answer 21

It was a brilliant book, i was totally hooked, could not put it down till the end. Try his other books he is truly a brilliant writer.

Answer 22

yeah its a good book alright, a lot better than the da vinci code, however his two other books are terrible.

Answer 23

I think it was a good book, fun to read, very interesting but if it's one of the best books you've ever read, you need to read more.

Answer 24

I have to agree that it was a book that kept me hooked all the way through.

Answer 25

i read it about a year back. I also liked this book alot, Im thinking of rereading it again.

Answer 26

*HI5*

That book is brilliant, definetly one of his best.

The Da Vinci Code of course was brilliant too, but I much prefer this book ,there is a lot more excitement.

Answer 27

absolutely fantastic, try digital fortress (same author) and shadow of the wind by some spanish guy..(really good)

Answer 28

no
