Thoughts about the cover:
I don't know if I like the cover. I like parts of it but that person with the weird circle thing around him isn't sitting right with me. My friend who looked it up told me that that person is Dante, which makes sense because it relates to Dante's Inferno. I still think they could have went in a different direction with the cover. Let me know in the comments what you think of the cover and if you can't wait to read it as much as I can't wait. =]
Thanks for Visiting and Happy Reading. =]

I like the cover. It follows the same rustic style all of the other Langdon books have. I cannot wait to read this!
