“A hundred thousand miracles are happening every day” (Flower Drum Song).

Robert Langdon, a Harvard symbologist, is woken in the middle of the night by a phone call that is going to change his life. This phone call may also change our lives. Dan Brown weaves many story threads into a tapestry of intrigue. The story takes place over 24 hours. A positive thing about this tale is that it is told linearly with very few flashbacks, except when it is necessary for a back-story. In this story, he treats Robert Langdon’s character as if Langdon is not aware of many well-known technical items and theories; this may be true of Robert Langdon, but Dan Brown also irritatingly treats us as if we do not know these things! On the surface, we are treated to a “who did it” and “will we get there in time” story. We must separate the goats from the sheep. However, we are also confronted with science versus religion. Are science and religion like oil and water, or are science and religion just two of the facets of God?
