A review by darnellbrandon
Labyrinth by Kate Mosse

3.0

This book is a solid three stars. Many people here compare it to The Da Vinci Code, which is not entirely fair. This is two separate stories that have several common threads, so I think that is one important distinction.

At times I was immersed into it, and at times I put it down for several days. I enjoyed it and will read the rest of the series, but it wasn't something I couldn't have lived without.

The modern-day story felt flat and less interesting than the historical period. I think that is the best part of this book, though some of the character decisions came out of nowhere and didn't seem realistic.

Still, it was an enjoyable book with an interesting premise (though the ending left a little to be desired). It's worth a read.
