ANGELS and DEMONS by Dan Brown


When a scientist was cruelly murdered and branded with a symbol of an ancient secret society, Harvard Professor of Art History, Robert Langdon was called upon for his expertise in cult symbology. As he decipher the ancient clues and secrets, he find himself embroiled in probably the longest lasting war of all time, one between Science and Religion.

A prequel to The Da Vinci code, the premise is almost identical. Langdon met up with an attractive woman, whose loved one had been brutally killed. Together they must seek out the murderer and sort of "save the world". Some say Angels and demons is better than Da Vinci Code, but I though otherwise. I wasn't as engaged this time round. But after reading Angels and demons, it does reminds me of a Michael Crichton's science thriller, State of Fear. All in all a nice book to read.
