Newton's code has a unique plot. I just got to know about Newton's view of the relationship between the Bible and science, and I'm guessing this book will be an informative one.

A nice historical fiction as well as a C/T/M/H, with a touch of sci-fi as well. Seemingly the book has got its name from 'Davinci Code'. I would like to try this one soon. Congratulations on being BOTD

The interrelation between science and religion with connections to a cult-like organisation sounds interesting. The author has clearly explored powerful themes and managed to create an engaging narrative. Great review.

I also did not know that Isaac Newton was religious and studied the Bible. It's interesting learning that a scientist saw no separation between science and religion. This book certainly sounds fascinating and full of mystery. Great review.

Religious fanatics capable of starting the third world war? Isaac Newton from the Bible?... This is fiction taken to a whole new level. Congrats on BOTD.

Thanks for the great review! I guess it's as they say, "you learn something new everyday!" I never knew Newton was a Bible reader! I'm not sure this book would be for me, but I will be reading a little of it to check it out. It does sound intriguing!

An investigative-journalist professor is bored and has an opportunity to research information regarding religious fanatics, Isaac Newton's notes, and a billionaire cult leader that could lead to World War 3. This is an action-packed, nail-biting thriller with some historical facts stirring in the midst. I have added it to my reading list. Great review!

It is crazy what people will do in the name of religion like sacrificing young Yarubaal. I hope that doesn't actually happen! I love the history that is interwoven in the plot. Excllent review for a great story!

I already knew that information about Newton. I heard he tried to create a formula to calculate the second coming of Christ and was fully obsessed with the Bible, trying to decipher all the prophecies using mathematics. Anyway, that aspect of Newton always fascinated me, I'll definitely enjoy this book.
