My Review
So as somebody who added all the Robert Langdon and a wrong book so far I can tell you that his books follow a particular pattern and this book was no different in that regard a lot of description goes into a Dan Brown book I think that is his speciality so I was expecting the book to be descriptive
A lot of pages are just dedicated to the descriptions of the church's Cathedral and the museum that these people visit and a lot of pages are again dedicated to the scientific discovery of Edmund Kirsch so that takes up a big part of the story and I felt that sometimes these descriptions overshadowed the story in itself
This book took me the most time and Dan Rahn book has ever taken me to finish I thought that I will be able to finish this book may be in two or three days but it took me five-six days instead
It wasn't like that I went into reading some but I was kind of close to it although the story was interesting enough that it pulled me back right in time sometimes it took a little more time to get back on track one thing about Dan Brown's writing is that
Despite all the details that he gives in his books he never really lets the reader get bored he always puts the reader back what happened in this book too but I would just like to say that because of all these descriptions this book became too lengthy and a bit tiresome to read
A a lot of things were taking place in the book so because of that my all over the place all through the story Robert London's character is as endearing as it ever was Ambra Vidal character is not bad to
But again Robert Langdon mostly overshadows everybody in the story that's my opinion he is my favourite character and it's because of his character that I primarily liked reading Dan Brown's books
I personally felt that the story was not as lazy as you would expect a thriller to be because of all the description again it kind of slowed the speed of the story down
As for the mystery factor of the story, I am kind of sad to say that I sort of predicted what was going to happen and I was more or less right so that spoiled the thrill for me but despite that, I felt that the book wasn't written badly
If you are a Dan Brown's fan and if you are a damn drawn loyalist you are definitely going to love this book because this book has every damn drawn element in it just that it is a bit too lengthy and as for the suspense or the thrill factor it did not really bow me or blow me away that much
But it was still written nicely overall I would like to say that this is not a boring book this is interesting and it does manage to capture your interest but this is not a spectacular book.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
