nbruce writes “The two primary complaints I’ve heard about the Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown are 1)cheesy writing, and 2) insulting to Christians. FaithfulReader.com, a Christian book site, has assembled eleven authors who have written their own books in response to Brown’s. Read the Q & A here.
Also, at FaithfulReader.com, contributing writer Marcia Ford takes a look at 11 books either on the market or in the works that respond to Dan Brown’s bestselling novel. She focuses on the varying perspectives of the authors, differences in the structure of the books and significant distinctions in content — and then reveals her choice for the best Da Vinci-related work. She says there are 15 such rebuttals, and in 30 years of book reviewing, she’s never seen a title prompt so many responses.”

For instance:
DA VINCI CODE DEBUNKER: n. A person driven to apoplexy by a work of fiction that draws conclusions at variance with those drawn in another work of fiction, and utterly unaware of the irony of such a situation.
