John Le Carre is a masterful writer (Shakespeare compared to Brown), one of my all time favorites. He still puts out good novels that are entertainng, but subtle. But they aren't "easy to read" and "relax the brain" like someone else put it.
Umberto Eco and Gore Vidal are two other contemporary writers I enjoy. Dan Brown writes for people too lazy to read real literature. He makes John Grisham sound like Faulkner.
