This was another Robert Langdon adventure full of cultural history, and a beautiful girl working to help the good professor find the solution to a deadly puzzle before time runs out. Set primarily in Florence, and with the literary genius and symbolism of Dante's Inferno as the centerpiece of the story, this page-turner kept me wondering up until the very end. Brown's knowledge of the art, literature, architecture, and history of the Renaissance period in Europe is phenomenal, and it appears he has some (inside?) knowledge of secret societies, groups, and organizations that I am always shocked to read may actually exist. The book is a fun, quick read and I can easily recommend it to others.
