You say that it is impossible to find a book to rival "The Da Vinci Code"? Well have you read John Case's "The Genesis Code" or Margaret George's "Mary, Called Magdalene"? These are a few examples of the novels that are like Dan Browns "The Da Vinci Code". The practically have the same concepts, the italian mysteries, the puzzles, the theme of Christianity. They are all book with the same concept with slightly varied ideas. And, please note that these two novels were written and published before Browns "The Da Vinci Code" which was published in 2003, "the Genesis Code" being published in 1997, and "Mary, called Magdolene" in 2002. Taking this into account, could Dan Brown be accused of plaguarism?
J K Rowling's "Harry Potter" series is however, completely unique and original. Many have tried to find rivals but they have all failed to find one. No one can disagree with the fact that JKR is truely unique and no matter how hard you try you will never be able to find a book to rival her.
Also what we have seen for ages we never understood anything.It actually speaks volumes of truth!
Well, what proof do you have that the book holds the truth?? "The Da Vinci Code" is novel so it is a book based on fiction. The artwork, architecture, documents, and secret rituals depicted in this novel all exist (for example, Leonardo Da Vinci's paintings, the Gnostic Gospels, Hieros Gamos, etc.). But the character's actions and discovery's are obviously not real. And if they were real, we would have discovered the secrets of the Holy Grail long ago and a lot of the Historians whose work is based on this would be all out of their jobs.
NOTE: The blue statement was found from a different sourse to myself!!
