Grabbed me a copy of Frank’s best seller and held off reading it. So far I’m really impressed with the lore and characters.
I have not seen the new films though I’m told by friends they are quite good.
What are your thoughts on the Dune book and films adapting from it?
Went on a west coast road trip last summer and started the audio book in the car to see if my kids, 11 & 8 at the time, would be into it. They loved it so much it was pretty much all we listened to for a week. We got trough two and a half books before getting home.
The first three books are really great, and some of the best world building ever. The book is wonderful first person where you get to be in the characters head while the political games-manship plays out. You really understand where character motivation is coming from, probably the biggest difference from the movies.
