A review by apumaru
Dune by Frank Herbert
5.0
Simplified summary:
Space feudalism, political drama, religious prophecy, and sandworms. A bunch of sandworms.
Opening lines:
A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that balances are correct.
Review:
It's so hard to review a book of this magnitude - not the literal size but what it has turned into in the zeitgeist and the influences it has had on so many other pieces of work. You're thrown into a big, complex world and left to your own devices to piece things together. I cheated and watched the movies first so I didn't have the same experience. But wow what a beautiful world it is. I'm enamored and excited and can't wait to continue the series.
