Much like the previous 4 novels in the series it’s a gripping story full of symbolism, art and architecture, this time set in Spain and like a good series on Netflix where you say “One more episode before bed...”, it had me saying “One more chapter...” which is why I read it in only two days.
Yes, it is very similar to his earlier books, The Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons etc, but that’s not a bad thing, James Bond films are basically one story told numerous times in different settings, the same here

FYI, the hardback edition is currently £5.99 in Sainsbury’s and if you’re a fan of the series, I’d highly recommend it
Thanks for the review Rik.

I thought Angels and Demons was fantastic, although The Da Vinci Code droned on a lot in the middle third.

I think i'll pick it up next week.
