Aha The Davinci Code. I had heard all the hype about the book but had never read it so decided to take a peek over the christmas break. And it was interesting and enjoyable until the ending. Although a highly unrealistic book it did have intriguing ideas, of treasures which must exist because of lore hidden within our midst. The journey to find the grail was far from an epic but was very entertaining until the finale of the book. The ending seemed to be written in haste, wrapped up not in sync with the novels flow, and was a large disappointment. I found the grail being in the location where the hunt began to be a childish notion, and the reuniting of the family was similarly so. First half of the book gets five stars. Ill ignore the ending.
