Fun read.
I suppose Grossman was trying to jump aboard the Da Vinci Code bandwagon, but not only does he lack Brown's talent for storytelling, he doesn't even have a grasp on the basics of fiction writing. He breaks the cardinal rule of telling when he should be showing -- telling us about a character's personality instead of demonstrating it through their thoughts and actions, for example.
Galileo Galilei makes in 1601 a discovery in the mountains of eastern Italy that could cause turmoil over the world; that could bring down governments and shatter people's faith in religions.In the present time a group of people on a university dig in Montana headed by paleontologist Quinn McCauley stumbles over a discovery that a secret group of people for over 400 years have done everything to keep a secret and the secret group will do anything to stop the discovery to be revealed.
