On a quest to save the Vatican in around 24 hours, Robert Langdon, a Harvard Professor, and Vittoria, a physicist, unlock clues to gain ground on the cunning plan of the Illuminati. My conflicts with this book are simple. The implausible was constantly coming to pass during multiple moments of the main plot. A certain weapon was left behind during a pivital scene. The elements of earth, air, fire, and water were not part of Vittoria's common knowledge. The specialties of the main characters were discussed in detail and given in a lengthy lecture-style between characters while antimatter was threatening to blow up the Vatican and cardinals were kidnapped and tortured on the hour. The greatest blunder was the time frame as Robert Langdon only had hours to solve centuries of undisclosed secrets while he was sleep-deprived, escaping life-threatening situations, and traveling across Rome during conclave! I found this book slightly predictable. I was not motivated to turn the page until I was over 250 pages into this novel. The foreshadowing is lazily written and exhausting at times. I found the violence disturbing and the portrayal of women as sexual objects appalling. Angels and Demons was a true disappointment, especially for a best-seller.
