		<description>What makes his books famous is his ability to connect a bunch of clues, artifacts, monuments, and ideas then create a story full of mystery that makes the reader really wonder if it is true. If a writer can pull that off, his or her writing will be more interesting even if they don&#039;t possess the best rhetoric.</description>

		<description>@Sarah T - research maybe? He purportedly does extensive research for his novels and for that I appreciate. 

@Mailli - sounds intriguing. 

@Jennygirl - I&#039;ve only read &lt;i&gt;The Da Vinci Code&lt;/i&gt;. Must read &lt;i&gt;Angels and Demons&lt;/i&gt;. My mother has read and owns his entire backlist in audiobook. She just loves this man. He can do no wrong er write a bad book.</description>

		<description>&#039;The Da Vinci Code&#039; was a decent beach read but did not live up to all the hype. I wonder why Dan Brown waited so long to produce a follow-up?</description>

		<description>Angels and Demons was much better than DaVinci Code.

I remember the Freemasons  connection mentioned a long time ago, oh wait I thought it was Templars?  Both story lines tend to sound the same time after time.  National Treasure was pretty cool so that will be a tough act to follow.  But prob more open to interpretation vs. Templars.</description>

		<description>I agree. I enjoyed almost all his books (The Digital Whatever is the worst, though).  It did its job, telling a TV dinner story. 

I remember reading reports a couple of years ago that he had this idea of associating the freemasonry with the founding fathers, symbols in US bank notes and landmarks, and so on. Similar to the film, National Treasure, but I believe Brown&#039;s story might have something to do with the Mayflower Settlers society (?), the C.I.A. building (Landford? it apparently has a plaque of a code that no one could break or something like it?) and perhaps the historical connection to the Lincoln assassination. But all that is a rumour, though.</description>

		<description>I read on his website a long time ago that his next book was going to be about the free masons.  I wonder if he stuck with that idea or not.</description>
