What you need to know before your trail

Robert Langdon is accompanying celebrated academic, Katherine Solomon, to a lecture she’s been invited to give in Prague, Robert Langdon’s world spirals out of control when she disappears without trace from their hotel room. Far from home and well out of his comfort zone, Langdon must pit his wits against forces unknown to recover the woman he loves.

But Prague is an old and dangerous city, steeped in folklore and mystery. For over two thousand years, the tides of history have washed back and forth over it, leaving behind echoes of everything that has gone before. Little can Langdon know that he is being stalked by a spectre from that dark past. He must use all of his arcane knowledge to decipher the world around him before he too is consumed by the rings of treachery and deception that have swallowed Katherine.

Against a backdrop of vast castles, towering churches, graveyards buried twelve deep and labyrinthine underground passages, Langdon must navigate a shadow city hiding in plain sight, a city which has successfully kept its secrets for centuries and will not readily deliver them.

This is a battlefield unlike any he has previously experienced, one on which he must fight not for his only life, but for the future of humanity itself.

Travel Guide

Prague

As with all Dan Brown novels, this is the ultimate guide to Prague!

Locations and streets are key to the secrets in the book. Langdon starts off in the Four Seasons hotel and spends time racing around the city to find the next clue. The story features the famous Prague castle and lesser known spots such as the Folimanka Park.

Quotes:

“The city of Prague had always felt enchanted to him. It was a moment frozen in time. Having suffered far less damage than other European citied in World War II, the historical capital of Bohemia enjoyed a dazzling skyline that still sparkled with all its original architecture – a uniquely varied and pristine sampling of Romanesque, Gothic, Baroque, Art Nouveau and Neoclassical Designs.”

“The city’s nickname – Stovezata – literally meant “with a hundred spires”,  although the number of spires and steeples in Prague was closer to seven hundred.”
