Title: fiction disguised as nonfiction
Product review: Trots out all the same half-truths and tenuous connections that Dan Brown's DaVinci Code does. Nothing about Brown's novel is really elucidated, just more 'details' are given to pad the fiction. I enjoyed Brown's novel, knowing full well that the so-called facts behind the drama were mostly not facts.Some of the trivia in both books are indeed historical fact, but the connections between the facts -- the conspiracy parts -- is completely flimsy.I agree 100% with another Amazon reader who asked where are the citations? Where are the primary sources? This is not history at all, just more mumbo jumbo. I can dig mumbo jumbo in fiction, hey I'm a big Star Trek fan. But disguised as history it's not enjoyable at all.
