Friends Invent Best Seller From Renaissance Tale

The NYT has an interesting article about two friends who have written a bestselling book. The book, “The Rule of Four”, is a novel that looks at the mystery behind a real life book from 1499 Venice, “The Hypnerotomachia Poliphili.” As of this post, “The Rule of Four” was the number 2 bestselling book at Amazon. Some say the book is a cross between Umberto Eco and Dan Brown.
