Dan Brown is a fraud: A list of errors in Angels and Demons

What riles me up so much about Dan Brown's books is the people who, as Spenny notes, believe that his work is factually accurate, apparently taking Brown at his word that his books are well-researched.
In an afterword, Brown thanks his editor calling him "one of my dearest friends." Perhaps he was too much of a friend to point out his mistakes.
In other words, the devil'Â’s advocate finds the skeletons in the closets of those who are being considered for sainthood (or blessedness, in the case of beatification), not the papacy.

 CBC.ca - Arts - Books - Special Ed
Brown’s cocktail of violence, nudity, profanity and scatological humour was taken by many outside of the comic world as snot-nosed juvenilia — which on some level it was.
The book vaulted Brown into the indie spotlight, eventually catching the eye of Rolling Stone, which placed Brown on its “Hot List” in the early 1990s.
Brown can’t recall whether it was ever banned from any bookstores, but Ed was dropped by at least one distributor and experienced a memorable run-in with a feminist publisher.

Dan Brown is a fraud: A list of errors in Angels and Demons

"What had caught Langdon's eye was that the work had apparently been placed in one of the five churches on his list."

The immense popularity of The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown goes once again to prove that the mass of men and women are children who are attracted by a good fairy tale well told.
Only the present Master is in possession of that true list.
Another possible cause is the desire of some scientists in certain specialities to write as densely as possible, so that the audience is restricted to a clique of peers.

 What's With All the "National Best Sellers"? - How so many books get to the top of the charts. By Sean Rocha
Best-seller lists indicate how a book is selling relative to other books in a given geographical area or niche of the market, but they don't reveal how many copies a book has sold or how much money consumers have spent on a given title.
But readers who love The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown, which just had a long run at No. 1 on almost every fiction best-seller list, have no way to tell from the rankings whether it is selling 1,000 copies a week or 1 million, or how much money it has made.
Publishers like to promote books as "national best sellers" in part because the term creates a sense of momentum and critical consensus that the phrase "over 25,000 copies sold"—which would actually be a pretty good figure for literary fiction sales in hardcover—does not.

 Hugh Jackman as Robert Langdon Petition
With that description in mind, the list of actors that should portray Langdon is limited to a few people, but we must also keep in mind which performer Dan Brown, the author of the books, would like to see on the big screen as his characters come to life.
Robert Langdon, the lead character in New York Times Best Seller The Da Vinci Code and its prequel Angels and Demons, is physically described as having “wisps of gray in his thick brown hair, probing blue eyes, an arrestingly deep voice, and the strong, carefree smile of a collegiate athlete...

The critics and their publishers are also hoping to surf the wave of success of "The Da Vinci Code," which has been on The New York Times hardcover fiction best seller list for 56 weeks.
