The Lost Symbol, The Sequel to Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code
Ranked #6,040 in Books, Poetry & Writing, #211,414 overall
The Lost Symbol Was Released On September 16th, 2009
The Lost Symbol was surely one of the most eagerly anticipated books of 2009. Random House printed a record five million copies of the book. I am certain it became one of the most gifted books of the year because of how popular the first book, The Da Vinci Code, was.
Sonny Mehta, of Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, said, "The Lost Symbol is a brilliant and compelling thriller. Dan Brown's prodigious talent for storytelling, infused with history, codes and intrigue, is on full display in this new book...well worth the wait."

"Rogak does a fine job of describing the life and work of Dan Brown and keeps things moving, not unlike the writing style of Brown himself." ~~ Max Funkhammer, California
"I was most fascinated by the planning process that went into The Da Vinci Code. Brown and his wife carefully crafted a plotline of sex and religion that was sure to get the press salivating. It worked and the media frenzy that followed saved this exciting story-teller from near obscurity." ~~ James E. Orr
"Extremely well done, very thorough, and a truly fair portrayal of a highly controversial and private man. Kudos to Rogak for digging out the facts." ~~ David W. Wood, New Hampshire

- After reading Da Vinci Code - I am not interested in his author again . It was a terribly badly written book . I just wonder how it became so popular .I just guess that it was the topic itself that attracted people . The secrets of the Catholic church -but even in this subject I have read much more exciting books . ...What a pity that it seems that most people have not heard about those books ,,
