The Lost Symbol Reviews

Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol makes me want to go to DC and see it in a whole new light! Loved the book. Angels and Demons is still my favorite of the three.

The lost symbol is probably most awaited book in recent history of book publishing. In fact, I do not recollect, any other book apart from Harry Potter has created much euphoria, as the Lost symbol has created. The last book by Mr. Dan Brown - The DaVinci Code was sublime in its narrative, gripping in its plot, scored brownie points for puzzles/cryptics in the story, dared to be controversial and most importantly, ended very well. The reader was left with a sense of deja vu after finishing DaVinci. The comparison of Lost symbol with DaVinci is not without merit. They both are books by same author,...

Once again, Brown has proven an expert researcher, and this new book is peppered with historical details and anecdotes, which are usually...

The Lost Symbol is again another excelent work from Dan Brown. His mix of fiction-but-true-who-knows is intriguing and smart. It keep the reader clicked from page one to the end. Many twists and actions make you believe there's indeed a movie behind it.
