A review by craftingrama
House Atreides by Brian Herbert

4.0

The audio recording was pretty screwed in places and the beginning of the book was so overloaded in detail that I almost ditched it but after the 10th chapter I was starting to get hooked. It was a good book overall but the first part almost killed me with boring detail which I think could have been better done. Other then that the narrator was good and projected his voice well which helped to keep me slogging through the worst of it and the bad spots of strangeness that resulted from screw ups in the recording. It definitely helped to understand the first book of dune I had listened to a while back and I actually almost wish I would have gotten my hands on this one first even though I'm not sure I would have survived the massive detailed part.
