Excellent, Plot-twisting Thriller
An incredibly entertaining read. Thought provoking, fast-paced action. I had read The Davinci Code first, and was not sure that it would be as good as that book, but it definitely surpassed my expectations. I think this was even more enjoyable than The Davinci Code. I would highly recommend buying the Illustrated Editions. I have bought both of these Dan Brown titles in the Illustrated ...

dan brown books
All of Dan Browns books are great. I started with the most popular of course - the Da Vinci Code, but then back tracked to read his others. He is a great writer. I highly recommend all of his books.

Dan Brown
Thorndike Press, 2006
Exciting thriller
Very exciting book, mostly read it because it was dan brown and I was interested to see what kind of book this was considering it wasn't related to religion like his other more famous books. Like his other books if you take it very seriously you'll probably have some problems with it, but if your simply looking for a science related thriller then this book is it.

Communicating Design: Developing Web Site Documentation for Design and Planning 30 reviews

New Riders Press, 2006
Wheres the templates and reference material?
EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT book for reference. Actually the best you can find of the type. No filler and I enjoy the authors style.
Only four stars because book offers no companion templates for reference. How could a book focusing on documentation offer no documents/templates for reference in this day and age? Lucky for Dan his writing and explanations are THAT good. Though, shame on both the ...

The Da Vinci Code3857 reviews
Dan Brown
Corgi Adult, 2004
Elitist Criticism Aside, It's Genius
Loathed by elitist literary critics, wannabe highbrows and religious conservatives, The Da Vinci Code is by any measure a work of genius. To dismiss it as pop drivel is to overlook the fact that countless writers are striving to produce catchy pulp fiction that will propel them to stardom and riches - and few succeed. The book is riveting, fascinating, thought-provoking, surprising and a ...

Crosstown Books, 1996
Great poetry. This book was published a long time before the DaVinci Dan Brown published his successful books
I truly enjoyed Dan Brown's poetry and can highly recommend the book. Obviously, this Dan Brown is not the DaVinci Code Dan Brown but he is not a scam artist either. Just read the publishing dates for the various Dan Brown titles and you will find that this collection of poems was published in 1996. The fact that Dan Brown calls himself Dan Brown should mainly be blamed on his parents if there is ...

The Da Vinci Code
A great and easy read that keeps you reading. I have never read a book that I actually had the problem of putting it down, but The Da Vinci Code keeps you hooked. Dan Brown strikes gold in this edge of your...fingertips instead of seat i suppose. And if you liked this book, you'll LOVE the prequel to it, "Angels and Demons" by Dan Brown.

Very good but not his best.
I liked this book very much. He's done better work but I still thoroughly enjoyed this. In my opinion if you like Dan Brown's writing you will enjoy this book.

Codice Da Vinci ( Italian edition of The Da Vinci Code )2 reviews
Dan Brown
French & European Pubns, 2003
A STUNNING AND INTRICATELY PLOTTED THRILLER...
For a while I resisted reading this book, thinking that it could not possibly be as good as its hype. Well, I was wrong. This is simply one terrific book that will keep the reader riveted to its pages until the very last one is turned. It is a very well-written, intricately plotted thriller in which a great number of esoteric historical facts and interesting theories of a religious nature are ...

A Picture Book of George Washington Carver (Picture Book Biography)1 review
David Adler
Holiday House, 2000
George Washington Carver was a true inspiration!
I bought this book for my 7 year old. She picked him for her class project and she needed to read his biography from a book, not from the internet. George Washington Carver was definitely an inspiration to his peers as well as all generations that came after him. My daughter really got into this book! She was fascinated by Mr. Carver because he invented peanut butter. I would recommend all ...

Trellis Publishing, 2004
Teaches without being scary
This book was great for teaching my son about calling 911 without scaring him with all kinds of terrible accidents. The character was engaging and the illustrations lots of fun. The book facilitated a great discussion about learning our address and telephone number, which he now spouts at every opportunity! Thanks to the author and illustrator from this mom.

No dejen de leerlo
Excelente libro. Se puede decir que es uno de esos libros que te mantiene entusiasmado y atrapa tu atención página por página.
Indiferentemente de la controversia que este libro ha creado, es una historia muy interesante. Obviamente es ficción y no van a faltar personas que se sientan atacadas por esta obra, pero es solo eso: ficción. No soy muy religioso y no me interesa discutir con nadie ...

Umbriel, 2005
Excelente Seleccion
Luego de haber leído El Código de Da Vinci decidí leer otro libro de Dan Brown. Seleccioné este porque Angeles y Demonios me pareció que seguía la misma línea que el Código de Da Vinci, y no me arrepiento.
El autor presenta la trama de manera que deja al lector en suspenso y deseoso de seguir leyendo para poder saber que va a suceder.
Anunque introduce algunos elementos utilizados en el ...

The Great Expectations School: A Rookie Year in the New Blackboard Jungle13 reviews
Dan Brown
Arcade Publishing, 2008
Even the worst situation is not without hope
Dan Brown surpasses the similarly named charlatan by the second page of this tender recollection, so enough conversation about how one is not the other, eh? Anyone comparing the two (myself included) is drawing a tenuous, superficial connection. Simply put, it would be a discredit to this Mr. Brown to be associated with that one.
The Great Expectations School is a story from the intersection ...

Magnífico
El año pasado leí "Ángeles y Demonios" y me gustó tanto que me apuré a conseguir "La Conspiración" y "La Fortaleza Digital", mismos que ya no me gustaron tanto. Pero AyD es una aventura de acción e intriga inigualable, te atrapa y no la puedes soltar. Combina historia, religión, arte y ciencia en una narración trepidante y envolvente que me hizo terminar el libro en cuatro días, en uno de los ...
