The Lost Symbol
by Dan Brown
Available September 15, 2009.
Pre-order at Amazon.com
Sony Columbia Pictures is expected to purchase the rights to the book and continue the ongoing saga's film franchise via a movie.
Dan Brown’s longtime editor, Jason Kaufman, vice president and executive editor at Doubleday said, “Nothing ever is as it first appears in a Dan Brown novel. This book’s narrative takes place in a 12-hour period, and from the first page, Dan’s readers will feel the thrill of discovery as they follow Robert Langdon through a masterful and unexpected new landscape. 'The Lost Symbol' is full of surprises.”
“This novel has been a strange and wonderful journey,” said Brown, a native of Exeter who now lives in Rye Beach, N.H. “Weaving five years of research into the story’s 12-hour timeframe was an exhilarating challenge. Robert Langdon’s life clearly moves a lot faster than mine."
Bestselling, entertaining, page turning Masonic thriller. Plot: Murder in the Louvre Museum in Paris. Was Jesus Christ married to Mary Magdalene? A battle between the Priory of Sion and Opus Dei. Hardcover edition has secret code on the inside front cover. Can you decrypt the code?
This book is an attempt to trace the unknown history of Freemasonry back to the Knights Templars. The author, after writing this book, became a Freemason.
The authors hypothesize that Jesus married Mary Magdalene, had one or more children, and that their children and descendants emigrated to what is now southern France. Once there, they intermarried with the noble families and eventually became the Merovingian dynasty, whose special claim to the throne of France is championed today by a secret society called the Priory of Sion.
Simon-Sez: While the above thrillers, and bestselling fictional novels contain Masonic references and characters, please remember that they are for entertainment purposes. Please do not mistake them for factual, scholarly accounts of history or current events. They are not reference books, as are the Freemason books in the other categories. They are novels. That said, they do make for a great read.
