Dan Brown

I want to introduce an author that you might know, the author of "The Da Vinci Code", "The Lost Symbol' and "Angles and Demons" apart of a trilogy telling adventures of Robert Langdon. This trilogy is about symbols and culture. The good thing is this three book is not heavily connected so the reader can read the three books in any random order and it will still make sense. I personally only read 1 of the books: "Angles and Demons" and I just began reading "The Da Vinci Code" but all the 2 books start of with a killing and clues on the body or around the body, then Robert goes on this crazy treasure hunt to find the killer and sometimes save a whole lot of people. For example, the symbol showed down this post is shown in Angles and Demons, it says Illuminati, similar to Illuminate (vocab word!). It is a symbol that is the same read from right side up or the wrong side up. In the book there is also the word of the four elements earth, air, fire and water, which is all shown down at the bottom of the post. There was one more symbol in that book, the Illuminati Diamond, containing all then four elements, also read the same both up or down.
