An ancient secret brotherhood.
A devastating new weapon of destruction.
When world-renowned Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to a Swiss research facility to analyze a mysterious symbol — seared into the chest of a murdered physicist — he discovers evidence of the unimaginable: the resurgence of an ancient secret brotherhood known as the Illuminati… the most powerful underground … powerful underground organization ever to walk the earth. The Illuminati has now surfaced to carry out the final phase of its legendary vendetta against its most hated enemy — the Catholic Church.
Langdon’s worst fears are confirmed on the eve of the Vatican’s holy conclave, when a messenger of the Illuminati announces they have hidden an unstoppable time bomb at the very heart of Vatican City. With the countdown under way, Langdon jets to Rome to join forces with Vittoria Vetra, a beautiful and mysterious Italian scientist, to assist the Vatican in a desperate bid for survival.
Embarking on a frantic hunt through sealed crypts, dangerous catacombs, deserted cathedrals, and even the most secretive vault on earth, Langdon and Vetra follow a 400-year-old trail of ancient symbols that snakes across Rome toward the long-forgotten Illuminati lair… a clandestine location that contains the only hope for Vatican salvation.
An explosive international thriller, Angels & Demons careens from enlightening epiphanies to dark truths as the battle between science and religion turns to war.

Better than da Vinci Code
Very similar to The Da Vinci Code, just set in Rome & the Vatican instead of Paris.
Not as good as “Davinci Code.”
If I could give this book zero stars, I would. Dan Brown is all hype, no substance — not even light esacapism. Hard pass.
Excellent book by a really good author. I’ve read every book written by Dan Brown and have never been disappointed.
Great book
Dan Brown is always a great read!
Great read. Very suspenseful.
Dan Brown can be counted on to grab your interest and hold it from the first to the last page with twists and turns compelling you to read on till the very end.
Love the book!!
Dan Brown books are so well researched. I usually end up Googling places or groups mentioned in his books. Always an enjoyable read.
It was so hard to put it down that I stayed up almost all night finishing it!
Great book
I love this author and his books. You get to go on a wild adventure and learn something along the way.
A very good sequel.
The best in series in my opinion
Enjoyed the book, not as good as the Da Vinci Code, but still good.
I enjoyed reading this book more than I thought I would. Grips you from the start and never lets you go until the end
Very nice reading..like the theme and character building…recomending full series of professor Langdon 🙂
Well written and fast moving.
