Hey Man,
Come on gimme a break. Everyone out there is shouting and praising it. What for ?
Well friends Da Vinci Code by dan brown should be praised for:
Author's wonderful research for the plot.
Author's knowledge about a few countries, places and cultures.
Author's capability to create suspense.
Author's daring to write something against beliefs of a community that is guranteed to create havoc.
Author's creativity.
Author's history contents
................
Hey, but I'm reading a suspense thriller and not a history book, or a tourism guide, excuse me !!! ......... its not that good a book. I believe, a story is not a good story unless n untill it ends properly and naturally with nothing left untold. But what if all the thrills and suspense created in the story are not taken care of or something which you'll be very eager to know all throughout the pages as soon as the plot is clear ends up in almost nothing ??? Oh God, what kind of writing is this ? ''...khoda pahaad aur nikli chuhiya...'' ? I felt cheated by the author as well as all those people who created such a hype that I can't stop myself from getting into it. This one reason is enough for me to say that its not that good a novel unless you just wanna read it for the sake of reading.
Overall: If you're ready for a stupid ending, go ahead and read the full story. Trust me, it has all sorts of ups and downs, thrills, suspense, chills but at the end of it you feel like being cheated. It felt like this is not exactly what you was expecting from the author after creating such a good rapport throughout the book.
