Title: All shock, no awe
Product review: Well, I finally read it, just to see what all the hype was about. And I was VERY unimpressed. And, no, it's not just because it "challenges" "traditional" Christianity. It's because the so-called "challenge" was so weak. Even just a little bit of historical research blows Dan Brown's theories out of the water. Constantine collated the New Testament --- really? Who does he expect to believe this junk. The gross historical inaccuracies aside, the writing isn't very good either, honestly. There was a lot of potential for a good novel here, but he wasted chapter after chapter preaching and trying to persuade the reader. Just not a good book. I did, though, enjoy reading his "Angels & Demons," which has a similar focus but a much better story and much less time using his soapbox.
