Origin by Dan Brown
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I read nearly all his books and find this is a real MUST. Not because of the setting and the characters we know so well: More because of the plot and language, as sophisticated as we have known for so long. At the end Dan Brown sums up his research, and I find it overwhelming! Years of accurate research and a lot of help and support by many people and whole teams. The idea with old and overcome concepts of religions and the battle with science and artificial intelligence – I just loved it. And I take the message seriously: Dan Brown has published another good novel facing lasting questions of mankind and giving answers which the reader can digest or not – for me a lot of food thinking for myself. My congrats, Dan Brown.
