Title: Catholic Bashing Lite
Product review: I have just finished "The Da Vinci Code". What an utter waste of time! Dan Brown adds nothing to the murder mystery genre with this book. Furthermore, the entire premise is implausible as the key element of the mystery, the "Priory of Sion" and its guardianship of the Holy Grail has been proven to be a complete hoax. Mr. Brown's biblical scholarship is shoddy, his analyses of the artworks of Leonardo are facile and, of course, he provides no motive for the secret, which has been kept for so long, to be kept. I am truly amazed that this book has received as much attention as it has. I am sorry to say that I wasted my money on this book. A much better read would be Umberto Eco's "Foucault's Pendulum" or "Badolino".
