Da Vinci Code

After mentioning Angels and Demons in one of my previous posts, I could not stop writing about the Dan Brown, author of the best selling novels. Da Vince Code is the first novel I read of all Dan Brown's novels.

Initially I started reading the novel with what my friend had said earlier about the novel in my mind that the book deals with secrets of Leonardo da Vinci's paintings. The reading initiated slowly but soon it geared up speed with the speed of the novel and with the secrets of the novel getting revealed one by one. The way the script written, controversial storyline, revealing of the secrets one by one slowly, the facts and information described and the plot twists, surely the novel impressed me a lot. Inspired by the novel Da Vinci Code, I started searching about the works of Dan Brown and started reading his other novels Angels and Demons, Deception Point and then Digital Fortress.

How I got introduced with the Da Vinci Code is interesting. It was few years before, after my college, I with my friends was on a trip. While we are discussing about so many things, my friend John started about the novel knowing well that I am very much interested in the field of science. "You should try the book Da Vinci Code. It deals with secrets and hidden messages in the paintings of Leonardo Da Vinci" said John. He didn't mention it was a novel and so I thought it is some book explaining historical artworks. Few months later, one day I went to landmark with my friend where I saw this book in the novel section. This time I thought of giving a try and bought the book. Initial my slow reading of the novel geared up with the speed of the novel. I must say the movie Da Vinci Code is missing something from the novel.
