This is not the sort of book you will generally see on this list, but that’s okay.
Some handful of years ago, I bought Sanctus – this book’s predecessor – in an airport gift shop. I was getting on a place and had nothing to read.
Basically we are talking about a mystery grounded in fake secrets of the church. So, yeah, a Di Vinci Code knock-off. Well, let’s say they fit into the same oeuvre, rather than a blatant nod.
But then, surprisingly, I liked it.
It read as a one-off but some time later I found out that it morphed into a trilogy. I guess it sold well.
This is book two, and once again, I mostly enjoyed it. Diverting.
