absbia777 's review for:
The Da Vinci Code
by Dan Brown
File this one under "extremely late to the game". Everyone's heard of the Da Vinci Code if they haven't read it. So I finally picked it up to see what the big deal was. Robert Langdon is called to the Louvre to investigate a death with mysterious symbology involved. Enter Sophie Nevu, granddaughter of the murdered man who was a member of a secret society. Together they end up on a quest for the Holy Grail. I do understand why this book gained so much attention. There's a lot of disputed fact about Mary Magdalene and the Church. Lots of shocking stuff regarding the Bible. But ultimately, this is a work of fiction and I don't understand what the big fuss is about. Read into it what you want. It was a good read and I felt like I learned a bit of history along the way.
