The Book in Review The Lost Symbol
Dan Brown’s hotly-anticipated “The Lost Symbol” is really two books. The first is a spine chiller replay of Mr. Brown’s “The Da Vinci Code,” then again, actually it is set in Washington rather than Paris and Mason’s highlight as the star mystery society, rather than Opus Dei. The other book, inside “The Lost Symbol,” is a repetitive lesson, generally coming from the mouth of Mr. Earthy colored’s enduring hero, Harvard “symbology” educator Robert Langdon. He continues forever about how all religions are really a similar religion, so for what reason is strict individuals (that fundamentally implies Christians) so bigoted? “The Da Vinci Code” lectured that the Christian church has attempted to smother “the everlasting female” represented by Jesus’ alleged spouse, Mary Magdalene. In “The Lost Symbol,” the Christian church is attempting to smother the reality evidently a precept of Freemasonry that we as a whole covertly love the Egyptian sun-god Ra. Who knew?
As a spine-chiller, “The Lost Symbol” is energizing, despite the fact that readers of “The Da Vinci Code” will see that a portion of similar stock characters and creaky plot gadgets spring up during their read. There’s the lovely yet brainy female who turns into Langdon’s accomplice in-sleuthing. Here Katherine Solomon, a researcher at the Smithsonian institution work in “noetics,” a New Age part of material science that draws on string hypothesis and to attempt to demonstrate that “mind over the issue” is a logical reality. There’s a talking head to clarify all the fundamental esoterica, as well. In “The Da Vinci Code,” it was Holy Grail master Leigh Teabing; here’s it’s Langdon himself, in addition to Colin Galloway, a super liberal minister at the Washington National Cathedral who appears to have surrendered Jesus Christ for Ra.
The Three-Path Pursue
There’s a three-path pursue, in which Langdon and their female friend escape criminals, as well as law, requires. What’s more, there’s a genuinely unpleasant religion-fixated lowlife: a shaven-headed, vigorously inked Masonic start who calls himself “Mal’ akh” and who has practical experience in the inventively perverted killings of all who hinder him.
Recondite Intelligence
As the story opens, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is brought startlingly to convey a night address in the U.S. Statehouse Building. Not long after his appearance, the night takes an odd turn. An upsetting item — cunningly encoded with five images — is found in the Capitol Building. Langdon perceives the item as an antiquated greeting . . . one intended to usher its beneficiary into a tragically missing universe of recondite intelligence.
The Study of Noetics
At the point when Langdon’s dearest mentor, Peter Solomon—a noticeable Mason and altruist — is ruthlessly abducted, Langdon understands his lone expectation of saving Peter is to acknowledge this enchanted greeting and follow any place it drives him. Langdon is immediately plunged into a coveted universe of Masonic mysteries, concealed history, and at no other time seen areas—all of which appear to be hauling him toward a solitary, incomprehensible truth.
As the world found in The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons, The books of Dan Brown books are splendid embroideries of hidden accounts, little-known images, and puzzling codes. In this new novel, he again challenges perusers with a savvy, lightning-paced story that offers shocks every step of the way. The Lost Symbol is actually what Brown’s fans have been sitting tight for his most exciting novel yet.
There are the standard abnormal characters, bizarre events from the beginning of time that perhaps aren’t so odd all things considered, and a lot of interesting realities just as irregular likenesses that are featured between world religions. Dan Brown additionally discusses the study of Noetics which unquestionably causes you to ask yourself a lot of inquiries. It’s obvious that he’s done broad exploration around to make this story meet up so consistently.
In The Lost Symbol, you get a ton of data from Dan Brown about the Masons and Brown exposes a ton of misinterpretations about them as well. There are some unpleasant and upsetting scenes all through the story all strikingly told. He leaves numerous inquiries (not about the story but rather about history) unanswered and only something for the reader to consider or possibly send a few shivers down your spine.
