Deception Point (Reissue)
Deception Point (Reissue) | Dan Brown
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons, and Inferno and the "master of smart thrills" (People) comes a "rocket-fast thriller" (Vince Flynn) about an astonishing NASA discovery that unravels a deadly conspiracy that leads all the way to the White House. When a NASA satellite spots evidence of an astoundingly rare object buried deep in the Arctic ice, the floundering space agency proclaims a much-needed victory--one that could have profound implications for US space policy and the impending presidential election. With his re-election hanging in the balance, the President sends White House Intelligence analyst Rachel Sexton to the Milne Ice Shelf to verify the authenticity of the find. Accompanied by a team of experts, including the charismatic academic Michael Tolland, Rachel uncovers the unthinkable: evidence of scientific trickery. Before she can contact the President, she and Michael are attacked by a deadly team of assassins controlled by a mysterious power broker who will stop at nothing to hide the truth. Fleeing for their lives in an environment as desolate as it is lethal, their only hope for survival is to find out who is behind this masterful ploy. The truth, they will learn, is the most shocking deception of all in this "taut, fast-paced, barn-burner of a book" (St. Petersburg Times).

This was a low pick for me. I enjoy Dan‘s work but this one made me feel unintelligent sometimes. The consistent NASA level science and political jargon felt cumbersome at times. Amounts of it were very interesting and enjoyable to read/learn but other times I was willing it to be over. I love his short chapters and ability to leave you on a cliffhanger. The thrilling part moved fast and was engaging, it just wasn‘t a fav. #Roll100 for Jan!

I‘ve read this one a few times and really enjoy it. Sadly I feel like Dan Brown‘s latest few have been hugely below average. Also, don‘t you just love a good book in a warm bed #bliss

Halfbloodprincess20 @TheNeverendingTBR Awwww thanks. They‘re my fav ones. They are super comfy as well. Downside is that it‘s really hard to get out of bed. I start work at 7:30 so that‘s not a good thing 😂 4y
TheNeverendingTBR @Halfbloodprincess20 Oh, I know the feeling! 🙈 4y
RamsFan1963 Digital Fortress is still my favorite book by Brown. 4y

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description or reason for wanting to read the book. Some are old and some will be new. Don't judge me - I have a lot of books.

Dan Brown, being one of my favourite writer because of Robert Langdon series. The book isn't a Robert Langdon's but this novel is still a worth read.

@SquidgetsRoom Published before #DaVinciCode back in #2001so this is nearly 18 years old now! This book is somewhat prophetic as the last two years #NASA has reported some similarities and anomalous activity in #Antartica

...when fiction becomes reality ❓😨

DieAReader Thanks @bookcollecter I‘ll look for it to add to my tbd shelves!! 6y

I read this book so long ago.. I forget all the details but I remember it being captivating. Just like all of his books- there was a lot of science and intense scenes-- which makes for a good read.

This started out a little slow for me, but halfway through became the typical Dan Brown action. I definitely didn't like this as much as the Langdon books, but still an enjoyable read.

drokka I preferred this one to the NSA code breaker one. 7y

中文版本翻譯不錯。劇情感覺很像冒險電影,謎題比預期要少。

This book started out great! It had three of my favorite things intertwined: politics, physics and astronomy. I was absolutely in love with it, until I reached the middle of the book and then it became kind of "meh". It lost its spark and it wasn't interesting anymore. Still a great book though! #november #great #danbrown

Now reading and already a little blown away....is everything in this book actually real? Did Bill Clinton say that in 1996? Gonna have to do some googling on this one!

One of my favourite things about traveling is seeing familiar books in other languages and taking a peak at other people's bookshelves. 🤓

Chelsey Shelves that bare make me sad! 8y
Jellybeanbon Somehow due to some misleading photographs on the website we ended up in this really dodgy apartment in Prague thus I was surprised to see any books at all. The bookshelves were the nicest part of the apartment come to think of it 😉 8y

I expected more from Dan Brown. Mind you I read this after reading Angels and Demons and The Davinci Code, both fast paced suspense novels. This was not that. This was slow and brooding and the twist... I was upset. I'm still upset and let down

BestOfFates Okay, I'm intrigued but obv don't want to read this book - what's the twist? 8y
TheNextBook So there is a meteor in the Arctic that has been found and there's a whole conspiracy around who can be involved and why. The plot twist/reveal has to do with the fact that it could reveal alien life. Some bacteria. The lead up was horrible and predictable. 8y
TheNextBook I was just used to more from him. I usually can't guess whats going on with his stories and I'm on the edge of my seat. This one not so much. I read this a while ago and I remember that feeling of dissapointment... 8y
