Da Vinci Code Sells 8 Million Copies

The BBC reports that Dan Brown's thriller, The Da Vinci Code, has now sold over 8 million copies worldwide. The success of this book has put several of his other books, which also focus on conspiracy theories and codes, onto the bestseller lists. The BBC article, which gives some insight into the man behind The Da Vinci Code, also reports that Brown likes to hang upside in gravity boots and start work as early as 4 in the morning. Dan Brown has been surprised by the huge success of the thriller. Not only was the book incredibly popular but it has also had an impact on the publishing industry itself as the BBC confirms: "The Da Vinci Code has been translated into 42 languages and has spawned its own cottage industry of publications, including guides on to how to read the book, rebuttals and counter claims."
