Reviews"With daily reminders of the intensifying effects of global warming, the specter of a worldwide water shortage, and continued political upheaval in the oil-rich Middle East, it is possible that Dune is even more relevant now than when it was first published." -- The New Yorker   "One of the monuments of modern science fiction." -- Chicago Tribune   "A perfect, self-contained work of science fiction [with] a powerful ecological message and a reminder to its readers that their actions will have profound consequences for generations yet unborn." -- The New York Times   "Unique . . . I know nothing comparable to it except Lord of the Rings. " --Arthur C. Clarke, author of 2001: A Space Odyssey

  • Dune by Frank Herbert. Penguin Galaxy edition.

    I bought the book because it is about to be turned into a film (again) and i am a fan of Tim Chalamet, who will play Paul Atrides in the film. When I began reading, I forgot about the film and enjoyed the book for itself. Sci-fi is not my thing, but I loved Dune. It's not an easy read, which is why I read it twice and took notes. Does that sound geeky? There is good character development, good flow, good dialogue and the reader is always firmly grounded in a "real" place. That is, it has all the positive attributes of a well-done novel. Although the book is over 50 years old, it is just as relevant and fresh as it was in 1965. I bought another copy to give my oldest granddaughter (another Chalamet fan) for Christmas. I strongly recommend the book.

  • Gorgeous foil inlay that just shimmers!

    I usually prefer to grab an old used paperback when digging into the classics, but the design of this hardcover book was so elegant that I just had to get it! One really surprising detail I discovered is that the lettering on the cover is a foil inlay that shimmers in the light. Plus, the back cover has a variation of the word "Dune" that I almost prefer to the front cover's design! (See the photos for more). I've never been so happy to own a hardback edition of a book. Really pleased with this decision.
