Greetings
I have read all of Dan Brown's books.
I enjoy mysteries and especially when they have a European tie-in and "secret societies" or "conspiracy theories". And yes I do plan on seeing the movie.
The Da Vinci Code is a work of fiction and is marketed as such however because he weaves a doctrine/proven hoax/conspiratorial thread from a perspective that is relatively accurate in certain facts of historical accounts/stories/lore (the legend of the Templars, some of the secret society history, and religious persecution) - it is the weaving of these he uses as a back drop for his mystery story.
I have been surprised by the amount of conversation and inquiry I have received from people in reference to "is this true?" or "are you sure?" - which is the reason why I am sharing the link in this email.
I am sure there are hundreds of these out there from all different types of people whether it be history, language, fan, skeptic, Catholic, Christian, Evangelical, etc. website. Charles Stanley is someone I trust and in the past verified so I am comfortable sharing his website. Note that it will be posting new material all week but at this moment it already has a lot of information in a good organized user friendly fashion.
Take care...
