The book is Dan Brown's second novel, and deals with moral issues such as the debate between science and religion. It seemingly explains some of the internal workings of the Vatican in great detail, as a plot to blow up the Vatican unfolds during the voting process for a new Pope. Angels & Demons has many similarities with Brown's other books -- all events happen within 24 hours, it starts with a murder, and then takes a breakneck page through many European settings. In this book, much of the artwork i ...

He was originally summoned by the wizard Merlin as part of a last-ditch defense of Camelot against the evil witch, Morgan le Fay. When it became clear that the kingdom would fall regardless, Merlin sent the demon away and changed him into an immortal human named Jason Blood to wait until he was summoned. Later accounts retconned this, so that Blood is now an actual human, bonded involuntarily to the demon as its jailer. Centuries later, Jason was called to the crypt of Merlin and discovered a poem that could change him into Etrigan. U ...

Because all the witnesses were teenagers, many believe it to be a nasty hoax to be dismissed offhand, and suspect a group of high school classmates of collaborating to make up this story. These accusations curiously evoke the comments from a group of young witnesses of an early Mothman sighting, whose plaints were that nobody believed them because people always thought teenagers were up to no good. In investigating the sighting, the Dover police asked adults from Bartlett et al's high school whether these kids were known troublemakers. The faculty members, however, said that this was not a group of ...

Pylean demon society is pseudo-medieval and other than the treatment of humans, would seem familiar to most fantasy enthusiasts. It is a realm of swords and sorcery and epic quests, where heroes and champions are expected to prove their worth regularly in perilous circumstances. The overwhelming downfall of the society is its intense xenophobia, which is marked by the Pylean demons' adverse reaction to mention of details of non-Pylean anatomy (for instance, the fact that other species might keep their hearts in their ...

When the Ellcrys begins to fail, the Dagda Mor, then leader of the Demons, used his awesome sorcery to escape with two of his subjects. Seeking to gain revenge on those who imprisoned him, he set out to ensure his victory by slaying the Chosen. He also set his sights on Allanon, for only Allanon could match his power. Sending his Demon brethren after the Druid, the Dagda Mor prepared for his assault on the Elves.

In the beginning of the book, Brown claims that "references to all works of art, tombs, tunnels, and architecture in Rome are entirely factual (as are their exact locations). They can still be seen today. The brotherhood of the Illuminati is also factual." The book includes factual inaccuracies in diverse areas, as with most fiction. Despite Brown specifying the limits of his novel's factual accuracy, some readers have objected to other areas of information being misleading, in part based on the public comments made by the author and also du ...

Starting with the kidnapping and assassination of former de facto President Pedro Aramburu by the Montoneros in 1969, armed violence by left-wing groups increased. Some argued for the legitimacy of armed struggle on one or more of the following arguments: Argentina was under a military dictatorship. The government outlawed political parties and persecuted all forms of dissent, sometimes through violent means. Juan Perón, the leader of a vast mass of Argentinians, was in exile a ...

The "altars" were hidden as religious artwork in order to avoid the wrath of the Vatican and secure the secrecy of the Illuminati. The artworks that make up the Four Altars were all sculpted by Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Though no o ...

Baphomet, as Lévi's illustration suggests, has occasionally been portrayed as a synonym of Satan or a demon, a member of the hierarchy of Hell. Baphomet appears in that guise as a character in James Blish's The Day After Judgment. Jack Chick claims that he is a demon worshipped by Freemasons, a claim that apparently originated with the Taxil hoax. The head of Lévi's Baphomet was inscribed with a pentagram which is a symbol occasionally adopted by Wiccans and other students of the Occult. A goat head inscribed within an invert ...
