In case you haven’t heard, the new novel by Dan Brown has been announced: The Lost Symbol will be arriving in bookstores September 15, 2009. Can you believe that it’s been 6 years since The Da Vinci Code was originally published? For fans, it’s been a long wait for the new Robert Langdon adventure!
