What happens after all the hype dies down concerning Dan Brown's newest novel The Lost Symbol? Once you whet your appetite by reading Brown's latest, what will you read next? Don't worry! The library has you covered with more works that build upon some of common elements Brown includes in his stories. For example, check out Umberto Eco's Foucault's Pendulum, Michael Jecks' The King of Thieves and Katherine Neville's The Eight if you are interested in the Knights Templar and Freemasons. For other art history mysteries try A Finder End by Iaian Pears, Headlong by Michael Frayn and The Sixteen Pleasures by Robert Hellenga.If the religious conspiracy aspect of Brown's novels intrigues you try The Assassini by Thomas Gifford, The Genesis Code by John Case and The Book of Q by Jonathan Rabb. The role of women in the early church is another interesting topic that comes up often in Brown's works and is also discussed in The Prophetess by Barbara Wood. Some other titles to consider are The Portrait and An Instance of the Fingerpost by Iain Pears, Daniel Silva's The Confessor and Daniel Quinn's The Story of B.
