I'm eight chapters in and this book is AWESOME. I would reccomend it to anyone with a high reading level and tolerance for big words [which is basically all of us here. ] Stuff that might interest you from the book... Review- "Moves at a breakneck pace...not since the advent of Harry Potter has an author so flagrantly delighted in leading readers on a breathless chase"- The New York Times. Exerpt from Chapter Eight. Pg 48 [in the paperback edition]: '"The word 'Draconian'?" he ventured, offering the first thing that came to mind. Langdon was fairly certain that a reference to Draco--the ruthless seventh-century B.C politician--was an unlikely dying thought.'
