About This Item
While in Paris on business, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon receives an urgent late-night phone call: the elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum. Near the body, police have found a baffling cipher. While working to solve the enigmatic riddle, Langdon is stunned to discover it leads to a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci --The copyright page include the statement of "April 2003", "First Edition" with the full print line of "10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1". The top center of the front inside flap of the dust jacket is printed the original price in the middle of the flap : "U.S. $24.95/Canada $37.95". With "scotoma" misspelled as "skitoma" on page 243, not corrected before the 6th printing and with "Lyon" instead of "Lille" on page 152. Correct number line sequence, with no marks, underlining, or bookplates.Dust jacket is not price-clipped.I have 3 first Editions, with all issue points. One in near fine condition with inside front jacket slight crease line, $225.00. One with front flap crease line and slight shelf wear $215.00, and one with slight shelf wear, owners name and address on front end paper, and (I'm beginning to believe is a common affliction with this book) is a slight front flap crease line, $200.00
Synopsis
The Da Vinci Code is a 2003 mystery-detective fiction novel written by American author Dan Brown. It follows symbologist Robert Langdon as he investigates a murder in Paris's Louvre Museum and discovers a battle between the Priory of Sion and Opus Dei over the possibility of Jesus Christ of Nazareth having been married to and fathering a child with Mary Magdalene.
Reviews
This is a fast-paced, brilliant book...and extremely enjoyable. This book is a perfect gift for anyone...whether a beach read for a lady, or a long flight read for a man. You cannot go wrong with this book. Abbey Rheinhartt.
It is actually a real thriller dragging the reader into the world that Brown created. Astonishing. Also, you don't need any literary or any academic dowry to understand this work of art. You will envy the luck of Robert Langdon.
