One thing which I like about Dan Brown's books is his writing style. The effect of Dan Brown's writing style is very movie-like. They assume a fast action paced movie effect and makes you visualize the events unfolding. Now that Tom Hanks has become the face of Robert Langdon, one can easily place him in the story and the movie begins to form. People who have visited Washington D.C. would be able to picture the artifacts mentioned here - the Capitol building (its lesser known subterranean part of the building), the Washington Monument, House of the Temple etc. At least for someone who has never visited earlier (like me), at least I known now why Washington Monument was built and that it is seemingly hollow inside and not solid as earlier imagined! This writing is a good mingling of age old culture, puzzles, modern influences and modern settings. In many ways, I would say the Lost Symbol appears to be a new story, however, one could easily say it's an 'Angels & Demons" in the capital city. For once, a good read!
