Introduction

(

An ancient secret brotherhood. A devastating new

weapon of destruction. An unthinkable target.

World-renowned Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to a Swiss research facility to analyze a cryptic symbol seared into the chest of a murdered physicist. What he discovers is unimaginable: a deadly vendetta against the Catholic Church by a centuries-old underground organization -- the Illuminati. Desperate to save the Vatican from a powerful time bomb, Langdon joins forces in Rome with the beautiful and mysterious scientist Vittoria Vetra. Together they embark on a frantic hunt through sealed crypts, dangerous catacombs, deserted cathedrals, and the most secretive vault on earth . . . the long-forgotten Illuminati lair.

BEFORE THE DA VINCI CODE WAS BROKEN,

THE WORLD LAY AT THE MERCY OF ANGELS & DEMONS

"Angels and Demons"by Margit W. (see profile) 02/16/11

The action in this book never stopped. Although the events that occur would be impossible in real life, it was still a fun book to read.

"Angels and Demons held my interest"by terry b. (see profile) 05/16/10

I really did enjoyed this book. It revealed to me events that took place in the church that I never knew aobut. There is so much involved with Vatican and the Catholic Church. The adventure was good... (read more)

"Great Read"by Bella F. (see profile) 04/08/09

Angels and Demons is a fast read and definitely gets the mind going. I recommend this book to anyone who loves thrillers, mysteries, and conspiracies.

"Faced paced and fun read"by Yana P. (see profile) 03/29/09

I enjoyed Angels & Demons as much as the DV Code. Maybe it's because I am a huge history geek (I own books on symbology *nerd*) so I was already well aware of all the occult and symbolism aspects of the... (read more)

"I love this book!"by Silvia A. (see profile) 06/18/08

Ok. So I would recommend this book but w/reservations because it is very religious. It questions many catholic beliefs and rituals. I am not a practicing catholic but at times felt that I was offended... (read more)

"Very Brutal and disturbing"by Carla O. (see profile) 06/08/08

I finished this book but it took all I had. It was very brutal and disturbing. I didn't feel good when I finished this, I was just glad it was over. It probably has enough "meat" for discussion, but it... (read more)

"not as good as"by ellen t. (see profile) 06/07/08

Was expecting more after enjoying the Davinci Code, and did not like it. I believe this was published first. It is a good adventure story, but does not spark the same kinds of discussions as the DaVinci... (read more)

"Entertaining with a lot to discuss"by carole Z. (see profile) 03/07/08

The book was fast paced with many predictable as well as unpredictable twists and turns.
It provided a great deal of information on the Vatican that many of our readers had not known prior.
