Deception Point

Yesterday, I finished reading “Deception Point” by Dan Brown - had a hard time trying to translate the book name from Portuguese (”A Conspiração” - The Conspiracy) to English - thank God for the ISBN!

Dan Brown - A Conspiração

Well, the book really sucks, I think the name is appropriate though - it is really a deception.

This is the fourth Dan Brown book I’ve read: “The DaVinci Code” is okay, “Digital Fortress” is also good, “Angels & Demons” is great (the best of all in my opinion - the movie is coming out soon) and “Deception Point”… It sucks, I’ve already said that but I want to emphasize the (deception) point. :P

PS: Nothing beats “A Fórmula de Deus” by José Rodrigues dos Santos in this type of books - big ups to this great Portuguese mind and to my girlfriend for buying the book for me.

    Never read it, most probably I wont be reading it.
    “A Formula de Deus” looks intriguing, I’ll be taking a look some of these days. ;)

    I strongly recommend it, “Die Gottesformel” is a truly awesome book.

    Excelentes livros acima referidos nomeadamente a “Fórmula de Deus” que já o li 3 vezes e vou a meio da 4ª. O José Rodrigues dos Santos para além de bom jornalista é um excelente escritor. Também recomendo da mesma autoria “O Codex 632″.
