Henry Lincoln: Holy Brain, Holy Grail

Having read both Da Vinci and HBHG, I gotta hand it to Henry Lincoln for not going in on the lawsuit. The former is a pulpy but reasonably written pop phenomenon. The latter is like: "According to one tradition, a king with dark hair travelled this road during the 10th Century. A second folktale refers to a black-haired warrior on the same continent. Could it be that the warrior and king were one and the same...?" Yawn.

It's not that Brown didn't borrow from them. But considering their craft, they ought to be grateful for all the copies of their book he's selling for them, and let the movie do the same...
