Title: Not as good as the Da Vinci Code
Review: The authors have pretty much lost any credibility and any claim to scholarship by suing Dan Brown for writing a work of FICTION containing some of the authors' concepts. In essence the authors are admitting that they wrote a work of fiction and don't appreciate the competition. Had they seriously believed that their work had any merit as a scholarly historical work it seems unlikley they would be suing Brown for popularizing their research in a work of FICTION.Since the authors now seem to see themselves as competitors of Dan Brown, their work should be judged as a work of fiction. In that respect they have presented us with a book that is markedly inferior to The Da Vinci Code.
