    About “Origin”

    A self-declared atheist who is also a billionaire and futurist asks three leading clerics for a meeting. What he shows them turns their skepticism into sheer horror.

    Not everyone is pleased with his plans, and someone fears that the truth will come to light. The opponents are prepared to prevent the discovery from becoming known.

    Robert Langdon, a symbologist from Harvard and a former teacher of the billionaire, is drawn into a web of danger. How far can the power of a discovery reach when it could shake the faith of millions of people?

    Who is “Origin” for?

    For readers who enjoy conspiracy thrillers with puzzles drawn from art, history and religion, this novel offers a fitting story. It is aimed at readers who like to be led by a hero through riddles and conspiracies. Anyone who knows earlier titles about Robert Langdon, such as “Sakrileg” or “Inferno,” will meet familiar characters here and a similarly fast pace.

    When is “Origin” the best read?

    At a good 630 pages, the novel takes a few evenings or a long weekend, when you want to immerse yourself fully in the hunt for the truth. The audiobook edition suits journeys on which you want to carry the suspense with you. It also suits trips on which you want to keep following the hunt for the truth.
