To be read - my first book of 2005!

A story with good pace and an enjoyable plot - provided you can get past the mistakes and sequencing errors (e.g. p34 - heading west through the Tuileries to find the Louvre ahead of him in the east; p564 Rosslyn and Glastonbury falling on the same meridian; p589 heading north from Sacre Coeur to the Seine!) Please don't take this book seriously in any way, shape or form. It's just fiction. And not very well researched fiction either (it's historical merit is on a par with it's geographical merit - think Monty Python and the Holy Grail!). (Rosslyn named after a Rose Line? Puh-lease!)

Released on Tuesday, January 11, 2005 at about 1:00:00 PM BX time (GMT-06:00) Central Time (US & Canada) at At the Meet-up in London Cittie of York pub, England United Kingdom.

"DIVERTING DRIVEL"

Heard GREAT things about this. A fast paced thriller - you can imagine it as a film - complete with the usual Hollywood make over (don't worry, this book is pure fiction so they won't tamper with the "truth").

I got a little tired of Silas (very two dimensional) and the all to stereotypical Englishman - Sir Teabing. But, by the mid-point I could not put the book down. I was a little disappointed that I seemed to unravel the riddles about 50 pages before the protagonists do.

Nevertheless, a gripping read - but as Flambard said, don't take it too seriously.

I plan to release this at the February BookCrossing Meetup in London - unless I get the time to leave it at one of the London locations mentioned in the book.

PS: I like the photos you added to your "journal entries."

not sure what to say! er... it's an 'easy' read, and the story leaves you on a dangermouse-esque cliffhanger of an ending at the end of every chapter.. but the romance is a bit tacky and some of the riddles are a bit silly - the end riddle can be worked out straightaway. i worked it out straightaway and then there was 3 or 4 chapters of the cryptographer (sic), the symbologist and a historian character all struggling to work it out which was totally ridiculous - if u know only one thing about newton you'll work the riddle out! and the storyline about sophie's family made me laugh outloud when it is finally revealed! is this a good book? yes but... no but... yes but... !
