Angels & Demons: A Novel by Dan Brown
3.0 out of 5 stars A Hollywood movie, July 3 2004
That was my feeling when I finished reading the book, a Rambo or 007 hero trying to save the world in 6 hours!

I should say that the historical and religious explanations were incredible, Mr. Brown made all these intrict connections and sometimes it was hard to draw the line between fiction and reality. I have been to Italy and the architectural significance really overwhelmed me, I was reading it with passion and longing.

On the other hand, the story itself is nothing new, a heart filled with rage decides to get revenge and uses a form of destruction to kill his boss, in this case it is the Pope, to ultimately reach his own goal, but later discovers a hidden secret which Brown… Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful change, July 3 2004
It is really a great series! The changes in this book makes it fresh and gives it a new twist. Not only does she have an assistant who proves to be as wise and intelligent, but Mma's new approach to solving problems and understanding people's behavior is the main issue in this book.

I can't wait to find out what is going to happen to Mr. Matekoni, and… Read more

I am so happy she finally decided to get married and chose a well known person for his integrity and kindness. She made it clear though that she accepted his proposal not because she is a woman who needs a man to protect her nor to be his servant NO she was satisfied with her life and her job and hurt from her experience with one failed marriage that was still so fresh in her memory..

I love the series because of Mma's character. She wants to change and wants to learn about the modern world and life in the new century but doesn't shun her past .. on the contrary she is proud of her heritage and of her country and what makes it special. Through her investigations, Smith tackles various… Read more
