Title: Better than I thought!
Review: While you can read the countless reviews of the plot, I'm just going to stick to my opinion... This book was close to being a great book (while I agree with some that the ending was a little too unbelievable, it was different). It reminded me of what a Michael Creighton book should be. Unlike Creighton, Dan Brown, in this story at least, takes a piece of non-fiction and makes it interesting WITHOUT the canned plot. The story and history of the Illuminati was very interesting, and the fictional portion helped moved the story along devoid of being the same old boring stratagem. The amount of "near-misses" and other such plot-devices were kept to a minimum.One word of caution... This might not be a good book choice for the deeply religious. I know that while I was reading it all of my Catholic teachings came roaring back in my mind. But if you can put that aside and enjoy it for what it is, a work of fiction, you'll be glad you decided to pick it up.
Is the review positive or negative?
