About this product

Product Information

WHAT WAS LOST WILL BE FOUND Washington DC- Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned at the last minute to deliver an evening lecture in the Capitol Building. Within moments of his arrival, however, a disturbing object gruesomely encoded with five symbols is discovered at the epicentre of the Rotunda. It is, he recognises, an ancient invitation, meant to beckon its recipient towards a long-lost world of hidden esoteric wisdom. When Langdon s revered mentor, Peter Solomon philanthropist and prominent mason is brutally kidnapped, Langdon realizes that his only hope of saving his friend s life is to accept this mysterious summons and follow wherever it leads him. Langdon finds himself quickly swept behind the facade of America s most historic city into the unseen chambers, temples and tunnels which exist there. All that was familiar is transformed into a shadowy, clandestine world of an artfully concealed past in which Masonic secrets and never-before-seen revelations seem to be leading him to a single impossible and inconceivable truth. A brilliantly composed tapestry of veiled histories, arcane icons and enigmatic codes, The Lost Symbol is an intelligent, lightnin

    Same old Robert Langdon.

    Same deal. If you've read one Robert Langdon story, you've read them all. It's extremely formulaic. Having said that, the formula works for a fast paced fun adventure filled with knowledge about lesser known things. I enjoy them. Not everyone will. Not everyone will enjoy more than one in this series. But I do.

    TOO MUCH SAUCE IN THE SPAGETTI

    Although Mr. Brown has written one great book, sadly this isn't it. Poor Mr. Langdon starts out supposedly being shot in the head and suffering from amnesia, and the plot declines magnificently from there into fits of unbelievable twists and an overabundance of Italian verbage. Believability is sadly lacking in this foray into unrealistic characters and over stuffed chapters. Simplify, simplify would have been a better route to go. Overall a slightly entertaining read but I'm still waiting for aliens to show up before I turn the last page....

  • Nice addition to Dan Brown's Robert Langdon Character

    Like most who are reading this, I am a Dan Brown fan. Starting with The Da Vinci Code and continuing on with Angels and Demons, Dan Brown continues with the adventures of symbolist Robert Langdon in The Lost Symbol. Like his previous Langdon novels, the story takes place in a time span of less than a day and occurs in Washington DC. Again we have Langdon, with the help of others, stumbling over, and solving many ancient symbols to decode the meaning of them in a race against time. The storyline centers around the Freemasons and brings into baring the many architectural aspects of the American capitol. Although I found it not as good a storyline as Angels and Demons, and it certainly will not create the same level of controversy as The Da Vinci Code did, The Lost Symbol is still a welcome ...

  • Not His Best, but Up There

    Dan Brown is an amazing author who is known for his captivating writing. With the Da Vinci Code, and Angels and Demons, I expected nothing less than the same captivating character Robert Langdon running through a new city to solve another mystery, or should I say myth? I was captivated, however, it was not the same level of excitement as Dan Brown's previous 2 best sellers. No doubt it was worth the money I spent on the book, and I enjoyed it thoroughly, but it was a little slower, and the end of the book could have been cut short. It seems to me that the ending was almost an apology for the ripple Dan Brown made with the Da Vinci Code against God, and Jesus. The book, points to a higher being, wether the one true God, or the god, of other cultures. Overall, the book was a great read, and ...

  • Don’t lose this symbol

    This was one of the best books I’ve read In a long time. Compelling, and a fast page turner filled with mystery and intrigue with a good plot and a cast of great characters. It will teach you a few things about this country USA 🇺🇸 and all of the symbols most don’t know. I Rate it up there with East of Eden, Master of the Game, The Sea Wolf, not in the same vein as none of these are, but filled with adventure, anxieties and joys as well as taking you somewhere you may have not gone before. The book itself was good to hold and easy on the eyeballs.
