General Comments

Dan Brown, The Da Vinci Code the most overrated book of all time. A completely predictable, formulaic murder mystery. The religious "revelations" are nothing new; particularly to anyone with a modicum of historical awareness. I cannot believe the hype that surrounds this book. The hype is extraordinary; the book is just plain ordinary.
