I'm sorry, but I really do disagree with you most strongly on this.
Well done Mr. Brown!

I've read both Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons and hated both! I find Mr Brown's writing style...lacking. And repetitive. And I
really despise books where the author feels the need to explain himself in great detail, leaving nothing to the reader.
But that said, I agree with HarryT on this one. There are plenty of books/authors out there that I don't like, but if there's a market for it and he can make a living off it, more power to him! If I could write complete tripe and still make millions, I'd sure as hell be doing it too.
