Book Review of Dune (Dune, Bk 1)

Dune (Dune, Bk 1)
reviewed on + 2 more book reviews


The single best book I have ever read. Its power and imagination rivals that of Lord of the Rings; Herbert undoubtedly dedicated just as much of his soul to Dune as Tolkien did to LotR. Dune has so many nuances, so much emotion, so many small details, it is absolutely brilliant. You will continue to think back on it for days after finishing it. I can't believe I hadn't read it sooner. An absolute must for readers interested in sci fi and/or classics.
