About This Novel

Harvard University semiotics expert Robert Langdon was invited to attend a major press conference at the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain. His student of twenty years ago - now an internationally renowned computer expert and futurist - Edmund Kirsch is about to unveil a startling discovery related to two major problems that humans have not solved for a long time: Where do we come from? Where are we going? As soon as the event began, Langdon and hundreds of audience members were deeply attracted by Edmund's wonderful speech. But sudden chaos ruined this carefully planned party - Edmond was hit in the head by a bullet flying from the dark. What did Edmund discover? Why would anyone want to kill him...

The author's novels are quite good and quite attractive.

It doesn't look good and has no meaning.

It doesn't look good. It doesn't look good to a 15-year-old me. It doesn't look good. It doesn't look good.

Often ends in an anticlimax

The first time I read The Da Vinci Code, I was immediately hooked. But the ending was unremarkable. Later, I watched a few more movies, and they basically dug a big hole at the beginning, then filled it with a few shovels of soil and it was done. [Emot=default,18/]

Although it is not as exciting as the author's masterpiece, there is one detail that is quite scary if you think about it carefully.

Still so familiar

The writing style is good, I like it. My favorite is the Professor Langdon series.

It feels normal now.

The first Dan Brown works I saw were The Da Vinci Code and The Digital Castle, which I found very good. The story has a thrilling plot, twists and turns, and the narrative is fast-paced, quite like a Hollywood blockbuster. But after watching too many Hollywood blockbusters, I feel aesthetic fatigue. Later, when I saw Angels and Demons, and the one who said the name of the smallpox virus, I forgot, it wasn't as good as it was at first. His novels basically all have the same flavor???? It becomes boring after reading too much.
