review 1: I stumbled across this book while staying in a hostel in London. Their take-a-book, leave-a-book policy combined with the lure of the Medici family was enough to make me snatch the book up right away but, sadly, I'm not sure if it was overly worth it to cram this book into my already overstuffed suitcase and bring it back home to read. It wasn't the greatest book I've ever read... but not the worst book either. I found the storyline to be reminiscent of the DaVinci Code and the characters weren't as well-developed as they could have been but it was still interesting enough to keep me turning the pages. In my opinion, it was simply an 'okay' read. Nothing great but not the worst either. If you're looking for something quick and easy to blast through, this i... mores it.
review 2: Shades of The Da Vinci Code but without the darkness and frenetic pace. Interesting characters and as the story moves from the activities of Cosimo Medici in the 15th century to modern day Venice and Florence and the discoveries of archeologists investigating the bodies buried in the Medici Chapel. Finding out what Medici found all those years ago that was so important and dangerous the hiding place had to be hidden within riddles within riddles, has the reader hating to put the book down. Highly recommended for readability and an interesting story with characters you care about. less
