I'm so glad I'm not the only person who didn't like it! Totally agree with monkey and donnie - I thought it was predictable, formulaic, badly written, with one dimensional characters, and so obviously geared towards being made into a film it was untrue. I was really looking forward to reading it but just found it dreary and trite. At the first mention of the Holy Grail I felt like stopping reading - just thought "oh FGS...can't you come up with something a bit more original than that?!" Seen Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade - been there, done that!
