Has anyone else here read this book? Supposedly, it's some kind of bestseller.
If you have read it, you know why I'm asking on this forum....

I've read it, it's a huge best-seller. The story is ok, relatively well written, but it claims to be a lot more historically accurate than it actually is. And for the life of me, I can't recall anything from it relating to this board

Not Brown's best. I must admit, there was a slight devo twinge while reading, however.

Sean, how could you not remember the guy with polio??
It was a good start. Maybe if the character were 20 yrs younger... (he's going to be played by Ian McKellan in the movie.. aka Magneto)

Sean, how could you not remember the guy with polio?? Oh... hmmm. perhaps because I'm not a devotee and my interest lays with SCi's rather than polio? Perhaps because my memory is shot all to hell and back? (he's going to be played by Ian McKellan in the movie.. aka Magneto) Or Gandalf...

I read (and listen. Books on CDs are great) to it and I LOVED it. Loved it to pieces. ;D I'll read it again once I get over the twist near the end. I'll be reading Brown's others now.
The devo twinge was slight for me but read it, Lee. Read it everyone. It's good.

Yeah... I'm sorry, but it's hard to think of Gandalf as sexy. I guess he has to be older for the polio thing to work, but I know there are better alternatives.
As you guys said, it was just a slight devo twinge, with all the descriptions of legbraces....
