I started reading a bit in that Code thing but the writing was so very bad that I stopped. reading. |

That's what I thought, I am guessing that they are all to the same formula, mystery charactor, paralel story lines (The box opened, everyone gasped. Meanwhile in Paris......). Then a double twist at the end, the good guys turn out to be bad guys but wait the good guys are good guys.... |

I don't think they are shit, he is probably the best author of pulp suspense novels. I did find Angel and Demons to be a really good read. |

I read DaVinci cause everybody was rambling about how great it was. It wasn't. Don't think I've ever read a book and being annoyed of the way it was written. It was too hung up on details, and not even interesting details. I never got engaged with the characters, and basically couldn't give a damn if they the good or the bad ones. When I finished, I thought, "Now that was a waste of time". Basically, I thought it was a mediocre Hollywood-flick in written form. |

"Basically, I thought it was a mediocre Hollywood-flick in written form." If you weren't expecting more you probably would have enjoyed it. |

Perhaps, but generally I'm not into actionbooks at all, so I think my verdict would be the same. If somebody had told me more about it I wouldn't have read it in the first place. |

I see people reading it on the buses here the last few days. |

I found the The Da Vinci Code most boring and contrived. He has a sloppy populist writing style that bored me to tears. People who thought the book lived up to the thriller or suspense novel it was meant to have been mustn't think past what the next three lines are likely to bring because I found it predictable from beginning to end. |

He's a shit DJ as well. I saw him at the Autechre show in Manheim and I swear to god that the dance floor emptied as soon as he started playing. |
