With Dax Carlisle, DD, CHt
In the past ten years I’ve read perhaps a hundred books, but only two were fiction.
One was Dan Brown’s The DaVinci Code and the second was Dan Brown’s The Lost Symbol.
Perhaps not great literature, but I like the way Dan weaves fact in with his fiction.
Much of what is found in The DaVinci Code comes from a book I read in the mid-eighties,
Holy Blood Holy Grail. This book was read by millions of people, but because Dan was
able to re-package the information as a fictional mystery drama, it was read by hundreds
of millions.
One could argue the accuracy of the information as well as the conclusions
drawn, but at least it got this otherwise obscure information out there to the whole
world and most importantly got them thinking.
