I feel pretty much the same about this as I do about the first book: It took me a while to get really into it and the themes, consequences and hidden depths are so much more interesting than the story at face value. It feels a bit short and like an incomplete novel, but I found the characters a bit more interesting than in Dune, maybe due to their vulnarability.
