Product Description

Amazon.ca

Le quatrième roman de Dan Brown, Da Vinci Code, révèle cet auteur comme un véritable maître du thriller érudit. Les millions de lecteurs qui le suivent depuis son premier roman, Digital Fortress, le savent : ce professeur d’anglais, époux d’une historienne de l’art, fils d’un mathématicien et d’une spécialiste de la musique sacrée, se plait à explorer dans son œuvre les frontières du scientifique, de l’esthétique, et du mystérieux.

Lorsque s’ouvre Da Vinci Code, le conservateur du musée du Louvre profite des dernières minutes qui lui restent à vivre pour laisser derrière lui des messages codés, destinés à sa petite-fille, cryptologue de renom, et à un professeur de symbolisme religieux américain. “Le secret doit être transmis. Il se releva péniblement, évoquant ses trois compagnons morts et les générations de ceux qui les avaient précédés, sacrifiés à la mission dont ils étaient investis. Une chaîne de connaissance ininterrompue.” En une succession de chapitres aussi rythmés que prenants, le roman entraîne les deux inconnus dans une course qui les mènera des entrailles du Louvre aux rues de Londres, du déchiffrage de formules mathématiques aux questionnements existentiels. Le grand-père était-il membre, comme jadis Leonard de Vinci, de l’Ordre du très secret Prieuré de Sion ? Quel est le message qu’il a voulu léguer à sa petite-fille avant de mourir ? Pourquoi les fanatiques catholiques de l’Opus Dei sont-ils prêts à tout pour s’approprier ce secret ?

Roman d’action célébrant la nature féminine, récit frénétique et méditatif doublé d’une fascinante réflexion sur les croyances religieuses, Da Vinci Code est un brillant puzzle qui, de bout en bout, tient le cerveau aux aguets. --Julie Sergent

4.0 out of 5 stars Cultural literacy thriller, Jun 30 2006
By bernie "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
This book starts out with lots of superfluous description of people and places that never ties up or is relevant to the tale. The story takes quite a bit of time to get off the ground. The story line is textbook predictable. You know who the bad guy(s) are before they are introduced. As they say in the trade "it is the last person you would suspect."

Now for the positives. After a slow start the action finally starts to move. If you think it has holes that you could fly a jet through, maybe but if it did not you would have no story. One thing people enjoy in books is things they already know about. With Tony Hillerman it is Navaho culture. With Stephen King it is spookiness based on standard premises. This book also bases its suspense on existing conspiracies weaving current events into age-old mysteries.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read, Aug 21 2005
By Monica (New York, USA) - See all my reviews
Even though it is a historical fiction, this is a very good book to read. True that some of the points he wrote about were true. But we should know that this is open to interpretation. What is also important is that as readers, we should be able to discern where historical truths end and where fiction begins. I have read a great deal of historical fictions, and know how misleading historical fictions can be. Nothing that is written in this novel is exact. The father of this theme that Dan Brown took in this book is Michael Baigent , the author of HOLY BLOOD, HOLY GRAIL. He said it succinctly that he did not believe about the grail story because he did not know. What he wrote was what people said, many of whom were hazy about it. So, he wrote using "it is said that". That is what makes writings glaringly historical fictions.Another good historical fiction is DISCIPLES OF FORTUNE.I equally enjoyed Deception Point, Union Moujik, Angels and Demons.

5.0 out of 5 stars A REAL EYE OPENER!, Aug 11 2005
By John (New York) - See all my reviews
This book opened my eyes to a lot of things. This is a real good book. It made me think. Another book I have read lately that made me think is The Circle of Death by author Robert Rohloff of Canada.

I would like to recommend Da Vinci Code to be read carefully with an open mind.

The only reason it has one star is beacuse I am technologically incapable of giving it zero stars. I hate this book with every fibre of my being.
