    Well so far I've read Da Vinci Code and am reading Angels & Demons. I kinda like his style :) Anyway IIRC there are 2 more books he wrote so I wonder if they are in the same class as 2 that I've read? I don't want to ruin everything :)

    Thank you for your time!

    I read both and enjoyed them reasonably. By the time I got round to Decpetion Point, it just didn;t thrill me.

    The whole 'Here is a young attractive woman. Let's send her on an adventure with a handsome older man' thing just bugged me.

    Read Da Vinci Code, and thought it was alright. Nothing really new or original about any of the ideas he advances, or the way he presents them. It's not bad, but I definitely think the book is very overrated.

    Deception Point wasn't great. It wasn't bad though. Digital Fortress was pure crap.
