Dan Brown’s new novel, Origin, to be published 26 September 2017.
Global publishing phenomenon Dan Brown, author of the #1 international blockbusters Inferno and The Da Vinci Code, has written his latest Robert Langdon thriller titled Origin.
Origin will be published worldwide on 26th September 2017.
Dan’s long-term UK Editor Bill Scott-Kerr, Publisher at Transworld Publishers says:
“Over the past fifteen years it has been an utter privilege to publish Dan Brown's unique blend of electrifying storytelling, historical reinterpretation and genius code making. The fact that there is to be another instalment in this record-breaking run of books will be hugely exciting to his millions of fans around the world and gives us in the publishing world another extraordinary event to look forward to next year.”
In keeping with his trademark style, Brown interweaves codes, science, religion, history, art and architecture into this new novel. Origin thrusts Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon into the dangerous intersection of humankind’s two most enduring questions, and the earth-shaking discovery that will answer them.
