The Historian (Elizabeth Kostova)i'd be pissed if i were kostova. working ten years on my debut novel and then to have the da vinci code explode right before my tour-de-force was to be released. while kostova still made millions, her book seems like a (much longer) knock-off of dan brown's epic. i found myself flipping through this giant tome just because the set-up was so similar, and despite the subject matter being interesting (the "dracula code"), it was just too much -- or, i guess, not enough.
