And no, I'm not a Christian evangelist who is deeply offended by his books. He just doesn't write well. Try ...say... Graham Greene, Jostein Gaarder or Len Deighton - just not Brown goddammit! END RANT
You just made go look for that quote to see what he said and if I'd made an angry reply. I hadn't :mad:
On a brighter note, I ruined someones day once by telling them that the Da Vinci Code was fiction. They were really surprised and upset :rolleyes:

Since this thread is in the habit of not following the main topic.
Mr. Brown greatly offended me with Angels and Demons, since the entire premise is scientifically incorrect and the plot impossible (anti-matter stored in a jar? Not a chance man). But other than that, he's also very fomulaic and all of his books are essentially the same story with different clothes. So yeah.

Because of the blind acclaim and worshipping of Half Life's game design, we have games like Doom 3, Quake 4, Fear, etc.
No, we have games like that because there are untalented hacks out there making games who're always looking to rip off other, better games.

I wasted a small amount of my life reading his crap when I could have been reading something good :mad:
The whole of Angels and Demons was ludicrous, and the Da Vinci Code was just a more fictional version of 'The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail.

Digital Fortress started out interesting, but just got lamer and lamer as it went on. Da Vinci Code was just plain pointless. Dan Brown sucks.
