The long-awaited new Robert Langdon is here, and this was the wildest ride yet. Full of action and adventure, plot twists and turns, it took me a while to read -- my life kept interrupting -- but baby, it was worth it.
The confirmed bachelor, Robert Langdon, has begun a romance with Dr. Katherine Solomon, an old friend and colleague who's been a teasing "will they or won't they" relationship. The two have finally jumped into the will they category, with Langdon coming with her to Prague to cheer her on with a speaking engagement about "Noetic Science" and "Nonlocal Consciousness". And that's when it all goes to hell. Solomon's new manuscript is on the edge of blowing the lid off what we think our reality is. But someone doesn't want it published. And they're not afraid to kill to keep that from happening.
I truly got swept up in this book. Once again, Dan Brown proves he's the man when it comes to potboilers and thrillers. These characters are vivid and sometimes scary. And if the subject is anywhere near reality of our modern world, we are well and truly screwed by the whole discussion and debate of AI and....well, I won't finish the sentence because that would be giving too much away. You want to find out? You'll have to read the book.
I give Dan Brown's latest Robert Langdon novel, The Secret of Secrets a solid 5 starts. Personally, I'd give it a full 10 out of 5 if I could. It's brilliant, tense, and a great read.
