the rule of four (2004)

The Rule of Four (Ian Caldwell & Dustin Thomason)

the authors have been friends since childhood and collaborated and wrote this book in six years after they graduated. it's kind of a da vinci code knock-off but i think the writing is actually better, if not as gripping. it sold millions of copies and now i'm a jealous beast. a fun ride through another history lesson (the secret in question here isn't quite as compelling) and an easy to finish thriller.
