Writing: I already knew what to expect from the writing. Dan Brown has a very signature writing style and you can easily recognize it. It's valid to say that he mixes history scenes and action scenes very well. The one things the author could do different is to put more effort in making his female characters more diverse (I feel like they're always the same in his books) and stop the MC from having an affair with them in the end of every.single.book.
Characters: I already knew Robert Langdon from other books, but I feel like he was well-written enough that, if I had never read another book in which he is the MC, I would still have gotten to know him very well. Vittoria was a compelling character too, but I wish we had seen a more emotional side of her, she was grieving and this seemed to be forgotten sometimes. All the other characters introduced were essential to the story too.
