I loved it. I am a shoe in for these types of novels though and have loved all of Dan Browns books. I love art, mystery, symbolism, architecture, and running around beautiful historic cities and all their sneaky hiding places. Being especially fond of and familiar with the city of Florence, I can visualize well all the places that they are and it takes me back there for a moment. Quick read as always since each chapter is short and leaves you wanting to know whats going to happen next.

Inferno drew me in from the beginning because it reminded me a lot of my time in Florence. I stayed directly across the Palazzo Vecchio and Brown's imagery of the area made me like this a lot. The same goes for Venice. Near the end, however, I noticed how much the settings affected how I felt about the book. It's fast paced and a quick read, but the substance and last fourth of the book wasn't as enjoyable to me as his other books. Nonetheless, 4 stars because I really enjoyed his travels through Florence.

(Audiobook) classic Dan Brown novel with no shortage of twists and turns. The ending was a bit slow but the end was all worth it. Interesting concept of solving overpopulation with making 1/3 of the world infertile.
Why do you read Dan Brown? Is it for the intricate, heart throbbing journey through Robert Langdon's mind or are you attracted to the final turn and the destination that saves the world from an imminent catastrophe? If ever such question has popped up to you, 'Inferno' is the answer.
As always Dan Brown takes us to another detour of Italy, through its high artistic culture which offers a plethora of intricate meanings to the ever curious minds. I never had much taste for Dante, or anything related to him but the novel had me glued to the spot till the end. Well, isn't that why we call it popular fiction and the former the classic!!!

I always enjoy Dan Brown, especially as a fast summer read. Although I thought this novel was far better than the last one, this was not the same kind of page turner for me that the first two Robert Langdon books were. There was extensive and frequent retelling of pieces of exposition felt unnecessary. But when the plot pieces finally started to fall into place, the novel finally fell into that Dan Brown pace. But his books always make want to learn more about the art and literature and locations featured in the novels, this one was no exception.
