Summary
Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned to deliver an evening lecture in the U.S. Capitol. Within minutes of his arrival, the night takes a bizarre turn. A disturbing object - artfully encoded with five ancient symbols - is discovered in the Capitol Building. The object is an ancient invitation, meant to usher its recipient into a long-lost world of hidden esoteric wisdom. And when Langdon's mentor Peter Solomon - prominent Mason and philanthropist - is kidnapped, Langdon's only hope of saving Peter is to accept this invitation and follow wherever it leads him. Langdon finds himself plunged into a clandestine world of Masonic secrets, hidden history, and never-before-seen locations...all of which seem to be dragging him toward a single, inconceivable truth.
The Lost Symbol is exactly what Dan Brown's fans have been waiting for...his most thrilling novel yet.

Sometimes exciting and informative
Narrated really well.
Plot was at times exciting but was drawn out towards the end, it was as if the author wanted to write down everything he was researched.

very long
The story and characters are good. The twist on the tail is also a great catch. But the book is very long. Actually there are two books here: the main story and a book about imagery and masonry and the rest. I didn't feel the need for so much background noise.

Another Ace from Dan Brown
Having read all the previous Dan Brown novels, I wasn't sure what to expect from The Lost Symbol but this is probably Dan Brown at his best. He entangles the unwitting Robert Langdon (from Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons) in a macabre mystery where he needs to draw on his symbolic knowledge to try and save a dear friend. Interwoven in this, the plot unfolds revealing the tragic family history of his friend who also happens to be a senior figure in the Washington Masonic Society guarding an ancient secret. Also mix in the intense interest and involvement of the CIA and you are never sure what will happen next.
Langdon is pulled on a rollercoaster ride with the story being revealed in a series of layers, like peeling an onion. Each layer holds its own shocks and revelations until the truth is eventually discovered.
Set in the U.S. capital, Washington DC, Brown sets out to stimulate the reader once again in wondering just how much truth is mixed in with the fiction.
If you enjoyed the Da Vinci Code, you will almost certainly enjoy this.
