Tom Clancy books are good. He wrote 'The Hunt for Red October', 'Rainbow Six', 'Clear and Present Danger', 'The Sum of All Fears' and others. The books are much better than the movies.

Answer 4

Much of the story behind No Greater Sacrifice centers around the church where Dan Brown may have gotten some of his ideas for The DaVinci Code.



When feisty archaeologist Renée d'Arcadia is summoned to France to take part in the reading of a will, she is plunged into a maelstrom of deceit and destruction to solve a 100-year-old mystery originating from a sinister church where nothing is as it seems. Renée joins forces with David Arturo, an ex-helicopter pilot with a troubled past, to interpret clues cleverly hidden in tombstones and classic works of literature to find artifacts scattered across Europe. Racing against time, Renée and David must overcome their inner demons to outmaneuver a network of evil bent on destroying them. What they find in each other just might provide answers to some of mankind's oldest myths.

Answer 5

There are no good books that are similar to Dan Brown's books, and that's not even considering that most of his books (I have yet to read "Last Symbol" or "Deception Point") are really the same book, with the same plot turns, character types and plot holes.



If you want a real read, read Maclean or Craig Thomas, the author of the original "Firefox". Even if you thought THAT movie sucked, his books are still excellent.
