the lost symbol

With all the excitement of millions of Dan Brown readers, finally the time has come to unveil his latest fiction “the lost symbol”. It may not mar his earlier novels: Angels & demons or Da Vinci Code for they seemed to question the very foundation of a religion followed by millions today but it does peak into a new conventional topic “freemasons”.
Freemasons: the so called secret society of brotherhood performing unimaginable rituals succumb with the support & protection of the government of one of the largest democracies in the world only to avoid chaos. As usual With wits & luck, the protagonist Robert Langdon not only manages to come back from the dead but changes his convictions on masonary legends. After four years of waiting for this book, everyone is curious to know what controversial topic will he use in his next fiction.
I guess to know the truth about the masons, recommended book is by the writer Kamran Ran.

Dan Brown should stop hiding under fiction to promote widespread lies, especially among the youth of this generation who know nothing. ...To stop making unfounded insinuations about Jesus Christ, Mary, and the ancient Catholic Church. ...To stop churning out creative stories to engage people's idle time and need for recreation by feeding them with historical speculations, an oxymoronic expression at best. There are limits to historical fiction. It is a disastrous genre if not done right, i.e., if the opinionated, speculative part is irresponsibly passed off as hard fact.

Where in Qatar did you get the book? Did Virgin have a Virgin launch; Branson sure is a masonist-old news!
