Product Specification
- Origin is the fifth novel in Dan Brown's bestselling Robert Langdon series. Blending cutting-edge science, art, religion, technology, and suspense, the novel takes readers on a thrilling journey through some of Spain's most iconic landmarks while exploring two of humanity's oldest questions: Where do we come from? Where are we going?
- The story begins when Harvard professor of symbology Robert Langdon travels to the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao to attend the unveiling of a revolutionary scientific discovery. The presentation is hosted by Edmond Kirsch, a billionaire futurist, computer scientist, and one of Langdon's former students. Kirsch claims that his discovery will fundamentally change humanity's understanding of life and existence.
- Before Kirsch can reveal his groundbreaking findings, the event is violently interrupted, and the scientist's research is placed in jeopardy. Forced to flee, Langdon joins Ambra Vidal, the museum director and future queen of Spain, in a desperate race against time to recover and reveal Kirsch's secret to the world.
- Their investigation leads them across Spain, from the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao to Barcelona's architectural masterpieces and the halls of the Spanish Royal Palace. Along the way, they encounter powerful enemies, cryptic clues, religious controversy, and sophisticated technology that may hold the key to humanity's future.
- As the mystery unfolds, Langdon uncovers a discovery with the potential to challenge traditional beliefs and reshape the relationship between science and religion. Featuring Dan Brown's trademark combination of historical references, fast-paced action, puzzles, and intellectual intrigue, Origin is a thought-provoking thriller that examines how innovation may transform the future of civilization.
