Story:

Did those notes slip out of your sack, don't worry about it, I'll pick it up for you! By the way, if I have not mistaken, you are that Harvard university professor "Robert Langdon" aren't you not? As soon as I shoot this question at you, you spark with a startled glance and spike with a gentle smile.Then I would generously explain to you, "It was your traditional garb that gave you away".Those turtleneck tweeds and khaki's are becoming more and more redundant don't you think? However, you just say, "Its always been the same".You ran off to board your jet, while I linger behind and broom that rugged floor.Do you look back? of-course not at me, instead at the European city you leave behind.If you ask which European city? I will say read author Dan brown's previous installments, leading into the one you are currently in.Guess what? you are that protagonist and the sol invictus of the other two archaeological anecdotes.Now, you are boarding this plane to take you to one of the busiest destinations in the world.Also deemed as the "the city with magnificent distances", Mr.Langdon welcome to Washington! You are to head your way to the capitol base, where conundrums, psychopaths and intrigued wenches await to make this day of your's remarkable.Here is the saddest part about it, "someone has kidnapped your friend Peter Solomon" and ask yourself kindly, why are you here in the first place?


Its sounds all the more astounding isn't it? the bare reading of the upper paragraph may just boil your bloodand intoxicate you, if you have gone through Dan brown's previous flicks of, "Angels and Demons" and "The Da vinci code".This review is for the people who are yet to go through the lost symbol.Which is the third book of the Langdon franchise.Though the book was released in the year 2009, its kind of an odd scheme to point your criticisms and acclamations in 2015.Well, what can I say, I just had to review it 6 years later as soon as I finished reading it.With deliciously complicated paradoxes and ironies for the intrigued, the lost symbol floats in a anchovy of soup. Steading its balance of readability from a halted pace to a fast and exquisite display of storytelling.Dan brown provides a rhythm read never before in his previous songs.However, his iteration of language takes a heavy beating.Since, more often people will find themselves spelling the redundant and it starts converting this into a superfluous or hypothetical brown plot.Still, it does not completely destroy this novel.Falling in the vivid appearance of this great quote, "History is a suppression of truth and embellished contents.Lost symbol will at the least disappoint few.


Here is the plot at a glance, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is invited to give a lecture at the United States Capitol, with the invitation apparently from his mentor, a 33rd degree Mason named Peter Solomon, who is the head of the Smithsonian Institution. When Langdon arrives at the Capitol, he learns that the invitation he received was not from Solomon, but from Solomon's kidnapper who has left a series of tasks in Langdon's hand to decipher the way to enlightenment.Langdon has only but one choice.To take assistance from Solomon's sibling and one of his best friends and unravel the chores, leading to the lost word buried somewhere in Washington.With sleuths around his back, will Langdon solve this series of mysteries or will he get lost in the arcane of art.


All the more fun and exciting to spell it, yet you might yawn after it ends.
