On a tour to Nagpur and back, I bought a Dan Brown novel Inferno for 400, on the condition that if I bring the novel without any writing on it, 200 will be refunded. Being a Dan Brown novel's fan, with full interest, I read the complete novel, in my 36 hour journey, with 4 hour sleep.
It's the edge of the seat thrill, that don't let you get out of the book, without completing the book. It's again a Robert Langdon's thrilling heist through the ground of Florence and Turkey, and their historical buildings with their details and above all it's a direct impact taken from Dante Allegiri's Inferno book.
Now coming to the story, we get a retrogade amnesia patient Robert Langdon opening his eyes in a Florence hospital. And then a girl comes at him and shoot at him, killing his doctor, Dr. Marconi, and then Robert runs with his female doctor, Dr. Sienna Brooks. And he find out that his own government is against him. And then he found out that his coat has a tube, which had inside a tube, which when got jerk, sparkle and the picture of Dante Aleegori's Inferno and his rings appear, with slight modification, and thus form the word Cetrovacer, which lead them to palazza vechio, and then the run start for their life, and that involved a genetic engineer and a transhumanitarian named Bernard Zobrist, and WHO director, Dr. Elizabeth Sinskey and an organization named the Provost.
They got through the knowledge of Robert Langdon to find out a plague planted by Zobrist in a cistern in Istanbul. The rest of the book is their efforts to avoid the crisis. Can they avoid it, or the virus will go air, is to be read in the book? One more thing is whom to trust is kept on changing for Langdon.
Readingwise, an awesome tale, written by Dan Brown, not his best, as in lights of The Da Vinci Code, but still very good.
Fast narration, and quick deep into the history make it an awesome choice.
