Dan Brown’s newest novel, “The Lost Symbol,“ goes the way of “Harry Potter“ and “Twilight“ as it breaks the one-day sales record for adult fiction.
Hollywood must be seeing cash signs. The latest Dan Brown novel, “The Lost Symbol” broke the one-day sales record for adult fiction when it was released Tuesday.
The newest book in the Robert Langdon series sold over one million hardcopies upon its release in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. On Amazon.com, the book is considered the best selling first-day adult fiction book ever, and that includes pre-orders. The e-book version of the novel is outselling the hard version copies.
The book also broke the one-day adult fiction sales record for Barnes & Noble, Inc.
“The Lost Symbol” follows another adventure of Harvard professor, Robert Langdon as he tries to once again uncover a mystery using ancient symbols, this time in Washington D.C.
Brown is the best-selling author of “Angels and Demons” and “The Da Vinci Code,” both of which have been adapted into Hollywood blockbusters with Tom Hanks playing the role of the Langdon.
“Symbol” is already in talks to be adapted into a movie by Columbia Pictures.
