Okay, Da Vinci Code exploded as a book a few years ago. I have to say that I really enjoyed the book. It was a really page turner. Some theories that made the book so hard to put down was the the chapters were short and left you hanging on to read me.
I think this is just a good way to write a book and keep you interested. After reading Da Vinci Code I picked up Dan Brown's "Angels and Demons" well it is not about "demons" but more like the first cut of the Da Vinci Code. After I finished this book I started to mix up the characters of both books because they are so similar.

| OH I did last summer and read the book that was before it tho it Angles and demon so i read them in the correct order I think so it wasn't as confusing to me I keep trying to get hubby to read them i know he'd really enjoy it as they are really kinda james bondish in a way i thought, they both kept my attention and made me think as well about many things and knowing how the worlds turn it really could be in a certain path of being more correct then we know.. Hubby cheated and watched the movie GRRRS I watched it too but it left so much out

I really should have read the books in order I think I would not be mixing the books up today.
Your husband did cheat by seeing the movie!  The movie, to me, could not compare to the book. The book was so much more thrilling, the movie, it was okay, but no where the pace and action of the book (or maybe that was all in my "mind"  )

Grinsz and I agree with the pace the book was just more thirilling and as Much as I enjoy Tom Hanks I still don't think having read the book as the actor I would have used...Tom did a great Job dont get ne wring but it just wasn't how i Pictured the main guy to be...I bet you could pick up the books read them in order and find a ton of things ya missed from before...

The Holy Grail 'neath ancient Roslin waits.
The blade and chalice guarding o'er Her gates.
Adorned in the masters' loving art, She lies;
She rests at last beneath the starry skies.
