World-renowned Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to a Swiss research facility to analyze a cryptic symbol seared into the chest of a murdered physicist. What he discovers is unimaginable: a deadly vendetta against the Catholic Church by a centuries-old underground organization -- the Illuminati. In a desperate race to save the Vatican from a powerful time bomb, Langdon joins forces in Rome with the beautiful and mysterious scientist Vittoria Vetra. Together they embark on a frantic hunt through sealed crypts, dangerous catacombs, and deserted cathedrals, and into the depths of the most secretive vault on earth...the long-forgotten Illuminati lair.

Entertaining, but bad.
Dan Brown is not a good writer, but his books are entertaining. The plot is exciting if you can get past how frequently Brown uses Deus ex machina to get Langdon out of a tight spot. Vittoria is horribly written, as are all the women in Dan Brown's books, existing primarily as an object for Langdon to ogle.
Despite all the negatives, the book is an entertaining read, and I intend to read more of Robert Langdon's adventures in the future.
La acción tiene un excelente ritmo y no decae en ningún momento. La historia es buena y muy entretenida. Además, los pequeños datos históricos introducidos en él, lo hacen bastante creíble.
