For a really well done book on the subject, I would recommend Sharan Newman's book instead of this one. But what I think is being missed by most books bashing the Da Vinci Code is that the book is a NOVEL... FICTION folks! Take it as fabulous entertainment, and don't fret so much about underlying messages the author probably never intended.

A nice follow up read after reading the Da Vinci Code. It tries to separate the myths from the facts.

If you actually enjoyed The DaVinci Code, knowing it was a piece of fiction, this "companion" book will just really annoy you.

from back cover:
The controversy grows with every sale of the bestselling novel. Throughout the contemporary fictional storyline of The Davinci Code, author Dan Brown skillfully weaves "historical" assertions intended to shake the very foundations of Christianity...
*Was Jesus merely human and not divine?
*Did Jesus and Mary Magdalene marry and have children?
*Is there a Holy Grail? If so, what is it and where can it be found?
Cracking Da Vinci's Code is the long awaited answer to these and other questions that may have troubled you-or readers you know. Authors James L. Garlow and Peter Jones present compelling evidence that Brown's assertions are not only historically inaccurate, but may also contain a hidden agenda.

If you are looking for facts behind fiction this book outlines some fascinating material to consider. While we know that the general public doesn't believe everything it reads in print- it's nice to know the "whos, whats, wheres and shys".

I am not a Christian, so this book was not relavent to me . After forcing myself to read the first three chapters I am passing this book along.

This book takes Dan Brown's fictional story and holds it up to the light of historic facts. I found it quite interesting in that it disproves many of the rather bizarre claims about Christian practices. This book is for the person who wants to know the facts behind the fiction.
