| Dan Brown specialises in badly-written tripe. I've already lost a few hours of my life on his books and I won't waste any more. |

| Dan Brown is CACK |
Dan Brown is a HACK! In the Da Vinci Code he uses the multi perspective approach, yet when we go into the mind of the villain, nothing of his villany is revealed! How can we be looking at things from the villain's perspective and not be made aware he's the villain!!!??? |

That's better. That's the first thing that annoyed me about that book. Who the hell is Da Vinci? Does he mean Leonardo? |

Dan Brown = Michael Crichton + religion
Wouldn't read any more of their garbage if it fell in my lap. |
