This is the first volume of Brian and Kevin’s Houses of Dune prequel trilogy. It reads better than the Legends of Dune trilogy that precedes it in chronological (not publication) order. I found the Legends trilogy to be mostly mean spirited with lots of wanton carnage. I suspect that was done by the authors to set the tone for why humanity bans all thinking machines. So this first book in the Houses of Dune trilogy was a refreshing change from that and, although still plot driven, had characters that seemed to this reader to be a little more fleshed out and not as cartoonish as in the Legends trilogy. Still not up to the standards of Frank Herbert but still worth reading for a Dune fan. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Frank Herbert's award-winning Dune chronicles captured the imagination of millions of readers worldwide. By the time of his death in 1986, Herbert had completed six novels in the series, but much of his vision remained unwritten. Now, working from his father's recently discovered files, Brian Herbert and bestselling novelist Kevin J. Anderson collaborate on a new novel, the prelude to Dune-where we step onto the planet Arrakis decades before Dune's hero, Paul Muad'Dib Atreides, walks its sands.Here is the rich and complex world that Frank Herbert created, in the time leading up to the momentous events of Dune. As Emperor Elrood's son plots a subtle regicide, young Leto Atreides leaves for a year's education on the mechanized world of Ix; a planetologist named Pardot Kynes seeks the secrets of Arrakis; and the eight-year-old slave Duncan Idaho is hunted by his cruel masters in a terrifying game from which he vows escape and vengeance. But none can envision the fate in store for them: one that will make them renegades-and shapers of history. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
