Great cover on this one. Great representation of the story. Good compoition and title work as well.
OH-MY-GOD...just OMG. I don't even know where to start this review. This book was just SOOOO friggin AMAZING! In fact, this may be THE best book I have read all year. The writing was FANTASTIC. The Alice In Wonderland theme FANTASTIC. The pace FANTASTIC. The plot was so unique and again FAN-FUCKING-TASTIC. The character development FANTASTIC. The secondary characters FANTASTIC. I want more of Chapel and Hyde. The main characters FANTASTIC. Rabbit and Dolly may very well be my favorite dark couple to date. And I LOVED LOVED LOVED the ending.
And with that, I am going to leave my review pretty vague. This is a book that needs to be experienced without too many spoilers. I'll tell you one thing though; this would make one hell of an excellent movie. I'd also recommend you heed the warning given because this isn't one for the faint of heart. Yours truly is giving it all the thumbs, fingers, and toes I have.
I wish you could give half stars because this really deserves another half star. Dan Brown's Langdon series is one of my all time favorite series. I always feel like I have been taken on a fast paced ride, but also learned a thing or two along the way. This third installment of the series is good, really good, though not quite up there with Angels and Demons, which in my opinion is the best book in the series. I suspect if you are a fan, then you will find yourself enjoying The Lost Symbol. Fingers crossed it doesn't take another 6 years before we see a fourth book...hint hint Mr. Brown. ;D
What a delightful little gem of a book! It reminded me a lot of the “No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency” books. Well written and charming, I can't wait to get my hands on number two of the series!
