Has anybody read The Da Vinci Code? I've just started it and can hardly get my nose out of it!

I read it in about a day and a half...and it only took me that long because I had to work a bit in there. You will also like Angles and Demons too. It is also by Dan Brown and the lead guy is in both books...

I've read it twice (I could never get into Angels and Demons, must try again), and it is a very gripping read (never thought it was in anyway based on true events, though, like some people did when it first came out, I thought it was just a good story!! Silly me!).

It's a good work of fiction. It is rubbish historically, the Priory of Sion is a 1950s/60s hoax, and the bit about the number burned during the witch hunts was corrected by the time the movie was made. Incidentally, Lyn Picknet and Clive Prince, who wrote "The Templar Revelation", which is the main factual source for the book (Holy Blood and Holy Grail was the original of a series of books by different authors on the subject) were in the movie. When Tom Hanks is on the top of a London bus, the hairy hippie and the woman with the fringe he walks past twice are they! Unlike Baigent and Leigh, they LOVED the book, because their sales went through the roof when it was repriented with the words AS SEEN IN THE DA VINCI CODE on the cover.
Steve Wilson, as mentioned in the acknowledgements in the Templar Revelation as seen in THE DA VINCI CODE!!!!
Silly me!).
