Dan Brown's 'Origin' reads like a flying air balloon that deflates before reaching stratosphere

This book truly disappoints. It is another book from Robert Langdon series. It starts great but the climax and revelations are so anticlimactic that you are left feeling as if time spent reading it was totally wasted. I had not expected such weak ending from "The Da Vinci Code" author.

The actual "villain" behind the plot is immediately recognized from the conversations that follows Kirsch's presentation and his tragic end.

Only reason to continue reading is to know what was it that actually Kirsch discovered. But when his discoveries are revealed you are left asking yourself "what? its all? Are you kidding me".

Benjamin Weaver in "The Devil's Company" by David Liss

This is the 3rd book in the series. The story is the most interesting and it is written in a most engaging manner.

Actually, the plot itself in the end is kind of weak but the reader would not know it until very end of the book. 

In this novel Ben Weaver is forced to perform some illegal activities to save his friends. The story is about East India Company and a mystery man with some secrets named Pepper.

It is an international thriller with British, French and Indian interests intercrossed. It shows rise of private corporations that serve as the extension of country's political ambitions.
