Concise and clear, but not much new for an SGU fan

Loved it, but couldn't help thinking that this is the book that OTHER people should read. Preaching to the choir a bit.

Robert Langdon, Harvard professor of symbology, arrives at the ultramodern Guggenheim Museum Bilbao to attend the unveiling of a discovery that “will change the face of science forever.” The evening’s host is Edmond Kirsch, a forty-year-old billionaire and futurist, and one of Langdon’s first students. But the meticulously orchestrated evening suddenly erupts into chaos, and Kirsch’s precious discovery teeters on the brink of being lost forever.

predictable and childish
Revisado: 10-24-17
The plotline is infuriatingly predictable and the book seems to drag on forever. In addition, the whole story seems to be one giant strawman against atheism.

Low-level entertainment lawyer Nick Carter thinks it's a prank, not an alien encounter, when a redheaded mullah and a curvaceous nun show up at his office. But Frampton and Carly are highly advanced (if bumbling) extraterrestrials. And boy, do they have news. The entire cosmos, they tell him, has been hopelessly hooked on humanity's music ever since "Year Zero" (1977 to us), when American pop songs first reached alien ears. This addiction has driven a vast intergalactic society to commit the biggest copyright violation since the Big Bang.

Clever and very creative plot details
Revisado: 07-20-12
Who was your favorite character and why?
I liked the fact that the protagonist, Nick Carter is a lawyer. I never though I could find myself cheering for a weasel like him. The vacuum cleaner, Ozzy, was hilarious.
Which character – as performed by John Hodgman – was your favorite?
I liked John Hodgman's interpretation of "plahs"
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I had to laugh out loud a few times.
Any additional comments?
This book was a strange but funny mix of different elements. It was highly critical of our "modern" society in a lighthearted and humorous manner. The storyline was a bit all over the place but it had some ingenious details in it. Definately worth listening to.
