It took over a week to listen to Dan Brown's audiobook Origin. I have the paperback but have never gotten around to reading that massive book. 99 chapters. This is a good story about God and AI.
Where do we come from? and Where are we going?
Two fundamental questions of Mankind.
These questions are answered in a satisfying way.
Along the way to answering these questions, Langdon's student is killed by a naval officer. Langdon is accused of kidnapping the prince of Spain's fiancée. They escape aided by Wilson, an AI. Almost get shot, and escape again. in a manner a bit tough to accept.
This is still a good read (listen) although, it was very wordy and several times, the same comments are repeated more than twice. Sometimes, these are Langdon's inner thoughts.
