The Genesis Code discussion

This old book has so many editions.

Does anyone think it's a good read?

Yes absolutely. I read it before i even knew about the Da Vinci Code, and thought this book should become a great movie. I wish it had. Some people dont like the detail of biology etc that is put in the book. But i find if fascinating. I feel it was thrilling to read, couldnt wait to turn the page. And I didnt cheat and read the back first. lol

"I am reading the Genesis Code.

The end."

It made me want to read the author's other books.
I loved the science and mystery of it.

I thought it was ok, it reminded me a bit of the Da Vinci Code. This genre though is not really me though.

I have to agree, the combination of science and mystery was great. Intrigue to the very last sentence.

Enjoyed it when I read it years ago, before I read Dan Brown. This sort of stuff, global trotting and treasure hunting makes great holiday reading. I usually save a story like this for the beach!
