Hello, Fellow Book Worms and Book Dragons,
Inferno is written by Dan Brown and is the fourth book in his best-selling Robert Langdon series. It is published by Doubleday Books, an imprint of Penguin Random House. In it, we are reunited with Professor Robert Langdon as he awakens in a hospital in Florence, Italy. Langdon has no idea how he got there. From what he is being told he was grazed in the head by a bullet and is now suffering amnesia. His only link to the events prior is what Dr. Sienna Brooks and her colleague are telling him. Nothing feels right and he is suffering terrible visions of death. After being calmed down, he settles into his medication. Through the haze of painkillers, Robert watches an assassin enter the hospital, gun down a doctor, and head for his room. Someone is trying to kill Robert and he needs to leave the hospital immediately.
With the help of Sienna Brooks, Langdon escapes. But behind him are armed commandos, the deadly assassin Vayentha, and his own government. Nothing makes sense and Langdon is determined to find out how he has come to have a target on his back. It's secret societies, daring escapes, and harrowing danger as Robert Langdon comes face to face with a deadly virus, that if released could wipe out the Earth's population. A race against time with a clock that is already ticking.
Inferno delivers Brown's unique brand of real-world art and history with a fictional adventure on an epic scale. This fourth installment is relentless in its delivery and leaves little room to breathe. False leads and shattering revelations are this story's strengths. As with the previous three novels, I enjoyed researching the art and locations featured in Inferno. Brown's use of real-life locations to up the excitement is well conceived. The main antagonist of this story, Bertrand Zobrist, was a three-dimensional character that delivered a true sense of dread into the storyline. This was a spectacular globe-trotting adventure novel that left me breathless in the end.
Once again actor Paul Michael returns as narrator for the audiobook edition of Inferno. His mix of voices and accents accentuated the overall experience. I am happy that he also reads the next book, Origin. Excellent voice work.
Inferno was a five-star read for me. It was a fantastic read. Cancel your plans and settle in for a wondrous adventure.
