Description

INSTANT 1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The world’s most celebrated thriller writer and author of The Da Vinci Code returns with his most stunning novel yet—a propulsive, twisty, thought-provoking masterpiece that will entertain readers as only Dan Brown can do. Robert Langdon, esteemed professor of symbology, travels to Prague to attend a groundbreaking lecture by Katherine Solomon—a prominent noetic scientist with whom he has recently begun a relationship. Katherine is on the verge of publishing an explosive book that contains startling discoveries about the nature of human consciousness and threatens to disrupt centuries of established belief. But a brutal murder catapults the trip into chaos, and Katherine suddenly disappears along with her manuscript. Langdon finds himself targeted by a powerful organization and hunted by a chilling assailant sprung from Prague’s most ancient mythology. As the plot expands into London and New York, Langdon desperately searches for Katherine . . . and for answers. In a thrilling race through the dual worlds of futuristic science and mystical lore, he uncovers a shocking truth about a secret project that will forever change the way we think about the human mind.

  • A Stunner. Welcome Back, Dan Brown.
Format: Hardcover
This is a stunner, perhaps the best DB book since The Da Vinci Code. My philosophy of reviewing is that it involves three questions. What did the author set out to do? Did the author accomplish that? Was it worth doing? In the case of DB we have a specific kind of book. It has a pile-driver plot. It has interesting characters but it is not really character-driven. It is popular fiction. In addition to plot its long suits are setting and subject matter. Here we are largely in Prague, with momentary side trips to New York City. The title refers to consciousness (Langdon’s girlfriend Katherine has written a book on the subject). Consciousness is indeed the most challenging element of brain science and it includes both scientific and spiritual dimensions of immense importance. In the novel the plot is advanced by the principal fact that Katherine Solomon’s book on the subject keeps disappearing; someone does not want this book to hit the booksellers’ shelves. Who? Why? DB writes this story with a hand tied behind his back. He requires that the science all be right (this may make it somewhat fanciful, but not science fiction) and that the setting (also something strange and almost mystical) be rendered faithfully and honestly. Bottom line: this is the kind of writing which requires enormous planning and research. At the same time it must be intelligible to a broad range of readers and it must be plausible. The book succeeds on all counts. It is both the ultimate popular read and something with fascinating and important scientific/spiritual content. It is, unmistakably, a ‘Dan Brown book’. It is not Dostoevsky; nor was it meant to be. Those who write condescending reviews of it should themselves attempt to write such a book and they should be reminded that readers can enjoy and admire a wide range of genres and styles. (Yes, I wrote this review after reading a snooty review by an individual who probably longs for an audience as wide as DB’s. And, yes, there is also some puritanism at work there. Great 18thc readers like Addison and Samuel Johnson knew that ‘honest pleasure’—the kind that will neither send you to prison nor to hell—was a great desideratum in our culture, a lesson that is often lost on those who consider such pleasure beneath them.) ... show more

  • A Good Read, Intriguing Information on Human Consciousness!
Format: Hardcover
“For years, Dr. Brigita Gessner had derided her patients’ claims of returning from the brink of death. Now she found herself praying that she could join the ranks of those rare souls who had danced to the edge of oblivion, peered into the abyss, and somehow stepped back from the precipice. ‘I can’t die… I have to warn the others.’ But she knew it was too late.’ So ends the Prologue, which makes you eager to read more. Robert Langdon is in Prague for a lecture series. He’s gotten close to another speaker, Dr. Katherine Solomon, a “noetic scientist,” the study of human consciousness. As in, for one thing, you can’t have an after-life experience if you don’t have consciousness outside of your body. At least that’s one theory. This book also gives you a golem, lots of chase scenes, and a very bad bad guy. I would not recommend reading a second Dan Brown title right after reading a first one. The plot set-ups are so similar you’d think you were reading the same novel. But with sufficient time between books (and assuming you’re reading other books in between), Dan Brown delivers a fast-paced story and, the best part for me, he is chock-full of interesting information. For example, “Secret of Secrets” brings in muscle memory, sudden savant syndrome, precognition, halos, and desert mirages. But the main arguments are for and about non-local consciousness. The YOU that makes you YOU, is not just beyond your body. It is everywhere. You’ll need to read the book for the details. But, as Brown writes in a blurb before the Prologue (see picture), the science described in the book is real. More chillingly, the experiments are real. 4 stars. I knocked one off as there was occasionally a bit of drag in the action, and the protagonist (in a monk’s habit of course) seemed a bit of caricature. Though not perfect, this was a fun read.

  • Tight, Tense, Great Characters -- Dan Brown has done it again!!
Format: Kindle
The long awaited new Robert Langdon is here and this was the wildest ride yet. Full of action and adventure, plot twists and turns, it took me a while to read -- my life kept interrupting -- but baby, it was worth it. The confirmed bachelor, Robert Langdon, has begun a romance with Dr. Katherine Solomon, an old friend and colleague who's been a teasing "will they or won't they" relationship. The two have finally jumped into the will they category, with Langdon coming with her to Prague to cheer her on with a speaking engagement about "Noetic Science" and "NonLocal Consciousness". And that's when it all goes to hell. Solomon's new manuscript is on the edge of blowing the lid off what we think our reality is. But someone doesn't want it published. And they're not afraid to kill to keep that from happening. I truly got swept up in this book. Once again, Dan Brown proves he's the man when it comes to potboilers and thrillers. These characters are vivid and sometimes scary. And if the subject is anywhere near reality of our modern world, we are well and truly screwed by the whole discussion and debate of AI and....well, I won't finish the sentence because that would be giving too much away. You want to find out? You'll have to read the book. I give Dan Brown's latest Robert Langdon novel, The Secret of Secrets a solid 5 starts. Personally, I'd give it a full 10 out of 5 if I could. It's brilliant, tense, and a great read. ... show more
