I managed to get a copy in France (through Waterstones, UK) but had to pay more for the ebook than the hardback costs elsewhere. That ain't acceptable. But, what the heck; as a pro fiction editor, I must admit to admiring the way Dan Brown goes about the task of being a reliable, jobbing author. High literature? Of course not. A solid and thrilling read ... more than certainly! He works to a formula, of course. But so do all serious workers in any field. Nice to see though how folks like Brown go a little beyond mere chemistry and dabble with alchemy. It's all darned good fun. And if the crazy hype prompts a few folks to pick up a book and read, maybe re-consider some pre-conceived ideas, the guy's doing literature in general a great service. Cheers. Neil
