The beginning was a little hard for me to follow - I don't understand metaphysics - but I'm about a third of the way through and it's really gripping. I liked the Da Vinci Code, then I read Angels and Demons which was great but i think this is better, its very fast paced. I like Dan Browne's style and I can see Tom Hanks as Robert Langdon. Couldn't get into Da Vinci Code film though.
