" I enjoyed this book, though it is not quite Dan Brown or Clive Cussler. Don't get me wrong, this book is well-written in about eveery sense of the word, and the storyline is right up there with the others. The only thing that I found lacking is that the story just didn't "feel" real. But the characterizations, the plot, the story, everything else was excellent. While everything was good, it just felt like he was trying too hard to one-up Dan Brown. He had the Vatican, the rogue cardinal, the few Swiss Guards that followed, and some big historical secret that the church was trying to cover up. I thing I would have enjoyed more if he had just stayed with the modern, toned-down Indiana Jones with a mystery than trying (too hard) to mix that with Robert Langdon. "
