I am not a fan of Dan Brown but he is no fool. In the past he has donated money to the incredible Hermetic Library in Amsterdam. This library is simply a treasure of wisdom. This wonderful library is a must for any traveller to Amsterdam.
"Thriller writer Dan Brown drew inspiration for several of his books there. The Bibliotheca Philosophica Hermetica is now rewarded with a gift of 300,000 Euros."

His new book "Origins" must hold some interesting ideas and concepts! I may even buy it.
Jason A's youtube channel latest video focus's on Dan Browns new book. Well worth a look!
There is some truth in there.
