Teaser wallpaper for Dan Brown’s upcoming book, The Lost Symbol. Images are unofficial.

The content of the image is left up to your interpretation. What (or who) is the helicopter searching for? Why is the flag at half staff? WhAt is the significance of the symbols on the left side of the image? Why is the compass oriented with east at the top? I’m not telling!

I just saw it in the Sunday Parade magazine. Had a different title last year (before publication).

A lot of things he writes about symbology, religion and art history and visiting great cities does intrigue me.

I have read Angels and Demons, The Da Vinci Code, Deception Point and Digital Fortress ... So I’ll be reading this one too.

It is as they all are books for entertainment, not a non-fiction story. They are entertaining and make you look at things in different than usual. This one appeals to me on multiple levels, and on a personal note more so since many men in my family were/are Masons. As am I.

Plus I’m a sucker for a good series.

Those are excellent sales, but as far as being a record? Rowling’s last Harry Potter book sold 8.3 million in the first day. I know that this is listed as adult fiction as compared to young adult, but they’re splitting hairs here to claim records. It’s like when you’re watching a football game and hear that a ball carrier has the longest run from scrimmage in a non-conference game since December 15th. Everything’s a record.

He writes poorly, IMO, although I find the books interesting, and enjoy them none the less.
