I must be 15 years old when I first heard about something as weird as The Da Vince Code, surprisingly not from any bookseller but the pastor of our Church in the Advertisement Announcement on Sunday. On that day, the pastor advised us, who he used to call Children of God, not to watch the movie released in 2006.

Those were the days when I believed in being born again spiritually, and according to the advice, I did never watched the movie. Some years later, I did but failed to understand the film completely. Again, some years went by, and I was preparing for my MBA entrance exam, and this book came as a challenge to me by my tutor to read and review.

I started reading with clear clarity that I will never understand a word because if I cannot understand the film, this book will never enter my mind. Any movie has its speed that you cannot control, but a book has its rate and imagination entirely under control by the reader’s senses.

Today, this book is not only one of my favorites, but this book is also why I enjoy reading and writing anything. Unquestionably Dan Brown is one of my favorite authors; I always look forward to the author’s new publication.

This book certainly gospels the Alternative History of Christ in a manner like a treasure hunt. In addition, it takes courage in doing so. There has been much speculation about the most famous god of this planet Jesus Christ and this book nails the alternative theory like anything you have ever read.

I liked the book because the author builds with the notable work of art by Leonardo da Vinci. After all, the book makes you google and search and study the paintings to understand them better. I have not read any author in my lifetime who compels you to do so. Due to this book, I started taking a keen interest in Leonardo Da Vinci’s work, his paintings, and his other inventions, which were only present in his era in the form of drawing. This book has made me a fan of the art and the artists of the renaissance. When I visited Paris to visit Lourve was my top priority, and credit goes to the book.

There are many speculations among the Christian community, and due to that, they have refrained from reading the book. This book in no way challenges your faith, but it upgrades by showing you the hint of possible alternatives to Christ’s History.

What if he was married? What changes that? In a matter of speaking, nothing changes that if you can accept that. The definition of divinity is wrong in the minds of not only Christians but many religious advocates. After reading the book, my faith has never changed, but I will not lie. I was equally excited to accept what is Jesus was married, had children, and the children are still living among us. Even if this is true in any sense, then it does not make me sad.

The last time I was sad, knowing an alternative history was of Santa Clause and my dad mockingly telling me that Santa is not real, they were us who placed gifts under Christmas tree when you were fast asleep.

This review does not make a difference, but the book had made a difference in my thinking over many years. This book gives us a chance to become a fan of notable artists such as Leonardo Da Vinci and Michaelangelo. One can learn from these artists how they remain true to their art.

After reading this, I have been more intrigued by Leonardo Da Vinci, and it is my goal to read his biography by Sir Issac by Walter Issacson.

To those who have still not read this book, only reasons are best known to them, please do read this book; it is the perfect book for a Boring vacation or a Mundane Weekend.

Thanks to Dan Brown For Writing such an Historic Novel which could inspire common man like me.

Thanks for investing your time in reading this review.
