The Lost Symbol

Mr. Brown wrote the first few chapters of this book as if he were already writing the script for the movie. The only problem is, is that in my opinion this movie, which will be a blockbuster starring Tom Hanks, should actually be a written for television movie.

I think in a lot of ways this book simply abandoned story. I kept reading because I didn't think it was so awful and then I got to the final chapters and discovered that yes indeed it was pretty awful. The final supposedly exciting conclusions left me cold, left me bored and left me annoyed that I'd put this much time into “the word”.
