ok so uv read it..erm..did u believe any of it?

He's kinda like salman rushdi..making up bs..just to get attention

He is kind o flike Rushdie in that they were both works of fiction. that is where the similarities end. You have to read the book, any book, with an open mind. His book gave important knowledge re: arts, culture, history etc. that can't be refuted because you don;t like the messge. It is fiction...it is not supposed to be fact. Just like Salman Rushdie.

And before we get into it, the reaction to Rushdie's works is a lot more iditic than any of his writings.

im not saying it wasnt a good book, i read it within a 2 days..im jus saying..anway.. it was intresting from an artisic point of view and he is a good writer..u read any of his other books?

Yes, I read Angels and Demons and Deception Point.

Incidentally, if you liked this book. Check out the "Rule of FOur". It is similar to the Da Vinci Code but smarter.

the author?

Caldwell and Thomason
