Dan Brown's Deception Point

On my flights to and from Taiwan I read Dan Brown's book, Deception Point. This was a suspenseful novel where a mystery involving government coverups, NASA, and murder was gradually revealed. It was a lengthy book that was packed full of information. It was highly plot-driven. Written in a style that was easy to read, it flowed quickly and kept me turning the page for more.

I usually do not pick mystery suspense books to read for fun, but it was the only book in the airport in English that I hadn't read. Alas, I tried a mystery for once. I was suprised by how much I enjoyed the novel. Dan Brown has a knack for weaving together obscure facts into a far fetched, but somehow believable, plot. He created interesting characters who I cared about and wanted to know better. Brown's plot was stimulating and he revealed just enough details to keep me quessing and interested. I would not say that the writing in this story was incredibly complex or sophisticated. However Brown's plot made for an interesting read. Deception Point was a good plane book.
