Dan Brown:Inferno 

I am the Shade. Through the dolentcity, I flee. Through the eternal woe, I take flight. Along the banks of the river Arno, I scramble, breathless . . . turning left onto Via dei Castellani, making my way northward, and huddling in the shadows of the Uffizi. And still they pursue me. Their footsteps grow louder now as they hunt with relentless determination.

’Above is an excerpt from the latest book in the Dan Brown series; ‘Inferno’ which was released on 14^th May 2013, 4 years after the previous book called ‘The Lost Symbol’. 

It is the 6^th installment of the series which consists of; The Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons, Digital Fortress, Deception Point, The Lost Symbol and now Inferno.  The book features the character Robert Langdon, the Harvard Professor of Symbology which has featured in 3 of the previous books and is set in the heart of Italy. The book is based around one of history’s most mysterious literary masterpieces – Dante’s Inferno.

This series of books are thrillers based around historical/religious events, one book in particular, The Da Vinci Code, causing lots of controversy throughout the religious community. The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons have both been turned into fantastic films however some readers say they prefer the books.
