Please do not judge me on this... This was baby's first political thriller and it blew my mind when I read it as a kid. It still has a special place in my heart.

A fun ride with interesting technology and science. I always learn a lot from reading Dan Brown. I enjoyed this more than the DaVinci Code. If you think you’d like adventure in the North Pole with some political drama added in than give this book a go. For me it was the escapist read when I needed a good distraction. And as always, Dan makes his books so easily readable that you can just melt into the story.

Good book, easy reading. Dan Brown is an excellent story teller. It took a little longer to get into this story than his later books, Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons. But once it gets going, it become hard to put down.

Ridiculous. Don’t waste time reading this formulaic thriller with super heroines and super villains and nasty rogue military surviving unbelievable crises.
Sigh.
Sigh.

The book was thrilling but the plot progressed at an unrealistic haste. Everything happened within one or two days... It's difficult to believe that any group of three people are resourceful enough to dismantle such a colossal scheme in less than 48 hours. Otherwise, the book encompassed many interesting Ideas and offered quite a different perspective on the role and position of NASA.

Definitely an interesting read but compared to his other books this one didn’t hold my attention as well.
