Deception Point is Dan Brown' third novel, and his last novel NOT featuring his celebrated character Robert Langdon. It reads pretty much like Brown's other books, which might best be described as "guilty pleasure thrillers written specifically to attract potentially lucrative offers from big-budget film producers." It reads a lot like a Michael Crichton knock-off: a completely implausible and ridiculously complicated conspiracy plot based on actual scientific research and theories populated with disposable cardboard characters and fueled with enough action and suspense to keep you reading even though you know it's basically the literary equivalent of junk food.
