hi prongs Wink

yes I know him. I read angels&demons and deception point and -- aahm, whats the name... Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes ahm, digital fortress, but that one I didn't read to the end because I was not really thrilled by it.

angels&demons I found very interesting and thrilling, although the end was surprising Smile and some weird.
deception point was also interesting, but there I wasn't so thrilled by. the plot was a bit odd and not really convincing. there were many weird aspects which weren't fitting in the context.

I think he is a good author but I don't like his writing style, because he has too short capitles and he mostly ends a capitle with hardly hinted 'tips' or what he thinks it is. sth like "..and he closed the door and went away without noticing the person behind him" uhuuh.. Very Happy thats a bit too exposed for me.. finally, I'm not stupid, I can also find more intelligent set hints Smile

at the moment I 'try' to read the davinci code but it's still not thrilling me so I don't know if I should end it.. tell me, what d'you think???
ciao, Sarah

he als wrote
    decption point
    digital fortress

and thei'r all good but i think the davinci code is best, and there is a definite regularity in the stories...

if you liked the code at the end of angels and deamons(i think, there's a code in tha back of deception point and digetal fortress anyway goeas a bit like 105-117-111-108-115-110-108-105-33) try my code at ronin.myftp.biz i made a litle program to decode these codes when we had an encryption decryption asignment at school (nothing big though)

there's also a webquest and chalange at www.danbrown.com
