JoniMFisher | Oct 26, 2023 |    ) LindaLiu | Oct 22, 2023 | The plot is a bit predictable and for sure doesn't quite have the punch like Angels and Demon or Da Vinci Code. ( ) harishwriter | Oct 12, 2023 |  ) lieblbiz | Aug 30, 2023 | I was told by a friend of mine this novel was not as good as he would have hoped it to be, so I went in with a lowered expectations. And man, was my friend wrong! This novel was full of Dan Brown signature twists and turns, and this novel I couldn't even see the ending coming! Usually I guess the ending, but this novel was a lovely surprise! The chapters were easy to read, quick to read and kept me hooked on every word. I did feel like the novel had some chapters that didn't really need to be in there, but it was still amazing! I couldn't put this book down and I want more by Dan Brown immediately. His intelligence and research is evident in this novel and I applaud him for his hard work. Five out of five stars! (  ) Briars_Reviews | Aug 4, 2023 |
 "In short, Dan Brown’s “Inferno” is the kind of satisfying escapist read that summers were made for."  ... there is the sense of play that saves Brown's books from ponderousness, even when he is waxing wise about some ancient mystery or architectural wonder. "Unfortunately, at other times the book’s musty passageways seem to be not so much holding history up as sagging under its weight." "To the great relief of anyone who enjoys him, Mr. Brown winds up not only laying a breadcrumb trail of clues about Dante (this is “Inferno,” after all) but also playing games with time, gender, identity, famous tourist attractions and futuristic medicine."  Renowned author Dan Brown hated the critics. Ever since he had become one of the world’s top renowned authors they had made fun of him. [...] The critics said his writing was clumsy, ungrammatical, repetitive and repetitive. They said it was full of unnecessary tautology. They said his prose was mired in a sea of mixed metaphors.
