Not sure how to start this, the only thing I can pull of my mind is that any book written by Dan Brown so far has never disappointed me in anyway! As you may see in the synopsis located in the back cover of the book, the story goes around Edmond Kirsch ( how a suitable name for a character that is looking revenge from a sect) a futurologist that looks to bring an answert to two of the most famous questions made by humanity since the begin of time: Where we come from? and Where do we go? In order to answer these two he'd go through a minimalistic research that when he finally gets the answer, worried about the repercussions this might cause, talks beforehand with three representatives of differents religions so they could give him a piece of advise and an opinion of how handle this knowledge before giving it to the world. But of course, not everything is so simple, as talking and showing, right in the moment he was about to show everything to the world, he is killed and now, one of his dearest friends and mentor as Robert Langdon will be the one responsible to go through thick and thin, in order to finish what Edmond started... give the two anwers to the world... all that in company of Ambra Vidal, the other person that worked beside Edmond in order to make such a great presentation to introduce the truth to the world. In this novel we will take a tour by the Guggenheim of Bilbao, the Mila House and the Sacred Family in Spain, where almost every single piece of architecture is a lost art. We'll take a look inside of a ficticious monarchy that is not as sacred and devoted as we thought. I consider myself a person very curious about the world that surrounds me, and reading a book of Dan Brown always allows your mind to visit any place far away from you with such a minimalistic care, that is like you were already there without the need of buying a plane ticket (and if you're in quarantine as me, this book will do marvellous for you),which is why I love so much his writing. The conflict between religion and science exists milleniuns back, and one has always tried to eclipse the other,but none has been fruitful on it. I myself am pro of science, because how can you be against something that can be proven right?, but that doesn't mean I don't believe in some higher entity, because if the science proves to create everything due to lawsofchemistry or physics...then who created the science? and everything goes around the question : who's first the chicken or the egg? ...so for me as long I know that, am good. Anyway the book is an action movie like, with enough adrenaline, suspense, thriller and fiction to keep you glued to the book and the masterfulness which is written is so, that is one of those books that transports you inside of them to be right beside the principal characters getting your life in peril as well. I completely loved it! Not giving it a 5 just because it hasn't touched every single one of my emotions but just most of them. but is definitely a book worth reading. Just a few quotes : Even if this quote belongs to another great writer and character of the real life, the character that takes his name in this story is one of my most beloved ones in the book even, not caring if he's real or not, good or bad, just know that I love him because as he says, " he was created to serve and obey orders...an he did" Loved it.
