Said Brown in a statement, "Although I studied Dante's 'Inferno' as a student, it wasn't until recently, while researching in Florence, that I came to appreciate the enduring influence of Dante's work on the modern world. With this new novel, I am excited to take readers on a journey deep into this mysterious realm...a landscape of codes, symbols, and more than a few secret passageways."

Inferno follows Brown's three previous books featuring the character of Detective Langdon, "Angels & Demons", "The Da Vinci Code" - which sold more than 81 million copies worldwide and ranks as the bestselling adult hardcover book of all time - and "The Lost Symbol."
