Harvard professor and symbologist Robert Langdon is called to Vatican City when a murder and branding occurred at the CERN laboratory and a canister of antimatter has been stolen from there. Along with him is Vittoria Vetra, the daughter of the slain physicist to help him through his investigation. Some events occurring are tied to the Church of Illumination and a mysterious killer known as the Hassassin, and the duo discover that a more sinister plan that involve the antimatter.

“A&D” is certainly a mysterious and turn-filled story that never slows down. One thing for sure is that it has a very intellectual feel in its tone, given how it centers on science and religion. Langdon and Vetra’s teamwork and chemistry is what made it worth reading while I did get a bit lost when it dives deep into facts while the story can get a bit exhausting and predictable. It’s still a fine read that has interesting topics in its mystery that are a bit more fascinating than its story. <b>B+ (83%/Very Good)</b>
