Ugh, Dan Brown.
Sure, his stories are good ideas (if you ignore the sheer formulaic way they're all the same), but he's not a very good writer.

He's a darn sight better than J K Rowling. And to be honest I like the formula he uses, because it follows the basic rules of a decent book, and some more advanced rules of the English language and plot writing.
I don't really think you're qualified to make critique of a world acclaimed author of several best sellers though to be honest. If you're saying that Dan Brown isn't a good writer in an attempt to pimp the Harry Potter books then that just gives you even less credibility as a critic. I'd rather hear negative criticism of Dan Brown from someone who knows what he is actually talking about rather than someone who has simply noticed that all his books follow a similar style.
