Connecting Da Vinci Legacy and Daughter of God
I've had several readers email me asking about the connection between Da Vinci Legacy and Daughter of God
The Linz Testament and DoG are _continuations_ of a theme I began in Da Vinci Legacy.
The THREE books are closely linked to one another. I would never have written Linz and DoG had I not started the process in DVLegacy ...
The Elect Brothers of St. Peter are patterned after and inspired by the Templars which is why
- they originated in about the same time period
- under similar circumstances
- have the same motives (protect and continue the bloodline, restore the proper leadership and theology to the church),
- the same physical treasure to protect (bones of the bloodline's origin),
- have associated themselves with scientific, literary, artistic and musical luminaries,
- have a secret that would destroy the Church as it exists today,
Plus DVLegacy has strikingly similar characters to those in DVCode and the hero and heroine who are co-equal as in DoG and DVC ... very unusual for a thriller, but symbolic of the co-equal male and female characters of God.
Then, of course, there is the issue of a similar title, which while not protectible, can be used as evidence of infringement

The equal male and female partnerships exists in all of Brown's books. Certainly the case in Angels & Demons. The protagonist in Deception Point is as far as I've read.
