If Scott Fitzgerald, Umberto Eco, and Dan Brown teamed up to write a novel, the result would be The Rule of Four" , says a nice complacent critic on the book cover. I beg to disagree, even Dan Brown writes better stories ... Nice attempt to surf on the new Dan Brown pseudo erudite trend, but I for one was not taken in ... And that's all I ask from a book, really, a little journey to countries unknown. My feet never left the ground.
I hope someone else will enjoy it ...

Unexpected book, it came as many BC books come: without notice, without calling them. One day, while going your way, you just find it there, waiting.
I won't say this could be a serendipity-related happening, having the book of my life getting to me; the text in the cover, and the previous journal entry seem to point this is not exactly the touching book that will change anyone's life. But well, I expect to spend a while entertained with it.
Thanks, meliluc!

Interesting: I was prepared for another Code/Enigma/Mystery of Whoever/Masons/Catarians/... and have found a different thing. The book is much more relaxed: people do not go running all the time, fleeing from the evil ones. They have a life in the University, they read, flirt, have personal problems, have a relationship (not the usual we-love-each-other-but-won't-tell).
In fact, these relationships, and even the personal development, are very important. The end was not as expected, maybe this has dissappointed me a bit. Not that it is bad, I just do not get it...
