inferno - dan brown


what would u do when you know there is  virus spread in our environment? what if you know that the virus is created to make people infertile to control world's human population?
terrified isn't it?

this time, dan brown brings his reader to work together with robert langdon once again in his new novel "Inferno"

inferno means 1) a large fire that is dangerously out of control and 2) hell ( with reference to Dante's Divine Comedy)

in this piece it means the latter.

it started with robert langdon woke up in Florence, Italy. he had amnesia and he didn't remember a thing. someone had shoot him in the head.

then he start running from florence to venice and to istanbul. 

this time symbology professor of harvard university is in the mission to find virus created by a germ engineer whose worried about the exponential growth of world's population. with Dante's Divine Comedy as a clue, Langdon accompanied by Dr. Sienna Brookes tried to solve the problem.

i'm not going to tell all their journey and what happen next. you should read it and experience it.

this time i found this 463 pages novel better than the lost symbol. until the end of the book it makes me thinking what would happen if this kind scenario is really happen? will the population accelerate at the safe rate? how will world reacts if this is real? what will religions say about this? 

too many questions to answer if this is happen.

okay stop thinking about that. i think this book is good. go and read it. i like this kind of book. i will search whatever new thing i found in this book. i never been to florence,venice and istanbul so every place they've been, every new word is a new knowledge for me.

and the most important thing is, the main idea of the story. 

there is one phrase that caught my attention. 
"the darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis"
