Inferno: A Novel (Robert Langdon)

THE #1 WORLDWIDE BESTSELLER FROM THE ICONIC AUTHOR OF THE DA VINCI CODE AND THE NEW ROBERT LANGDON THRILLER, THE SECRET OF SECRETS

“A book-length scavenger hunt . . . jam-packed with tricks.” —The New York Times


“[A] cinematic blockbuster.” —USA Today

Harvard professor of symbology Robert Langdon awakens in an Italian hospital, disoriented and with no recollection of the past thirty-six hours, including the origin of the macabre object hidden in his belongings. With a relentless female assassin trailing them through Florence, he and his resourceful doctor, Sienna Brooks, are forced to flee.

Embarking on a harrowing journey, they must unravel a series of codes, which are the work of a brilliant scientist whose obsession with the end of the world is matched only by his passion for one of the most influential masterpieces ever written: Dante Alighieri’s The Inferno.

I felt it was true to Dan Brown's style of writing and therefore very predictable. I enjoyed it and when the time comes they make it a movie, I will probably watch it...

I really enjoyed this book. After coming off of the song of ice and fire series, this shorter faster paced book was much welcome. The familiar Robert Langdon leads you on a Roller coaster ride across Europe and some pretty interesting things occur. I really enjoyed the theme behind the book and I really think it is up there with da Vinci code and angels and demons.
