Review

'[Herbert and Anderson] do a great job in investing the plot with heft and complexity and the narrative with pace and momentum, and conveying the sheer ferocity of the betrayals and duplicities ... a rare, rattling page-turner that no Dune adherent will pass up.' -- Kirkus Reviews on SANDWORMS OF DUNE 20070615 'Frank Herbert would surely be delighted and proud of this continuation of his vision.' -- Dean Koontz 20070615 'Those who long to return to the world of desert, spice and sandworms will be amply satisfied' -- The Times 20070615 A triumphant climax to the history of the Dune universe. -- Bookseller on THE BATTLE OF CORRIN 20070615 'For those of us who grew up with the world of spice and sand - how gratifying to revisit characters who felt like old friends, now brought to a satisfying conclusion.' -- My Weekly 20070615


Product Description

Here at last is the missing history of Dune, its empire and its ruling family during those twelve action-packed years. It is a story of love and idealism; of ambition and intrigue; of war and reconciliation. Above all, it is the story of how Paul Atreides - a young man who achieved absolute power over a thousand planets when scarcely more than a boy - comes to renounce that empire and seek a new way forward for the people he rules.

2.0étoiles sur 5 ANOTHER WINDTRAP DISAPPOINTINGLY HOLDING NO WATER, Nov. 17 2008
Par NeuroSplicer (Freeside, in geosynchronous orbit) - Voir tous mes commentaires

Ce commentaire est de: Paul of Dune (Hardcover)
To anyone familiar with the original DUNE universe, Frank Herbert's vision was so rich and majestic that as a reader I did not want the story to end. Well, at this point I very much wished it had.

PAUL OF DUNE had everything going for it: an interesting timeline, a detailed setting and unresolved cliffhangers. Yet it manages to fail.
This book picks up the action just after the first book (and movie) of the series (DUNE) and before the second (DUNE MESSIAH), a very interesting period of 12 years for which, so far, we only had hints and suggestive glimpses of. At the same time, a number of flashbacks flesh-out the details of the life of an adolescent Paul Atreides.
Wheels within wheels? No. Rather more like a lone, rusty wind-wheel turning in the soft breeze of decadent Kaitain. Let the good times roll...

According to Dorothy Parker, there are books "[..] not to be tossed aside lightly, [but] thrown with great force". This is one of these books. My study coffee-table now has the indentation to prove it.

I received this book over a month ago. I tried to read it numerous times but was so discouraged that I kept giving up. The first 100 pages can be summarized in just one phrase: "Paul is devastated by the ongoing Jihad but it is inevitable and the lesser of many evils according to his prescience". Paul says it. Irulan makes notes about it. Alia has inner voices echoing it. OK, we get it, please move on!
Which prescience, one must note, apparently is a very fickle commodity as we keep hearing of it but never actually seeing it action.

This is a book of science fiction so, yes, suspending one's disbelief is a requirement from page one. However, a basic logical scaffolding is required for the whole world not to collapse. Taking over entire planets with only a handful of unruly Fremen and some Sardakaur fresh from switching their allegiance? Paul having delegated almost every important decision to...Korba and his Qizarete priests? Where has the unstoppable momentum of Paul gone? If he had lost steam so soon, there is just no way that others would materialize his vision.
And just how did Fremen become so bloodthirsty and lost all sense of honor in a few weeks?

The young Paul stories fair a bit better but are cursed with the readers'...prescience of the Dune future: every new storyline must serpentine and eat its own tail before the end. After all, the Golden Path future has been set by Frank. And Writing is not a hereditary ability.

It feels like a bad batch of semuta to be sold anyway only, once more, to take advantage of the hardened addicts.

Ce commentaire est de: Paul of Dune (Mass Market Paperback)
I am a big fan of the original Dune series, which; by any standards is a masterpiece of writing. This book brings nothing to the series and in a very real way take something away. I would have loved to see a real fleshed out story; but here we see amateurish repainting of a story. If you're a new fan; your money is better spent reading the original works. And if you are a fan of the originals, re-read the originals and let your imagination fill the gaps instead of wasting your money on poorly written drivel.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Courtesy of Teens Read Too, Oct. 10 2008
Ce commentaire est de: Paul of Dune (Hardcover)
"I leave my footprints in history, even where I do not tread."

Paul Atreides, Maud'Dib to his loyal subjects, has unleashed a bloody Jihad across the universe. The old Emperor has fallen - his Imperium destroyed. It is now Paul's right and duty to erase Shaddam IV's reign from history and begin anew.

He will face many hardships along the way; assassination attempts, interplanetary wars, and deciphering who he can trust within his own household. And there is always the matter of the spice trade. "He who controls the spice, controls the universe" - a phrase that Maud'Dib understands all too well.

Paul will question his own motives and actions for ruling the universe, and eventually come to the realization that his decisions will shape the course of history.

PAUL OF DUNE was written to fit in between the original novel, DUNE, and its sequel, DUNE MESSIAH. Herbert and Anderson have attempted to bridge several gaps between the two novels, and have done so successfully. Fans of Dune will find their beloved characters, planets, and societies just as they left them. The authors do an incredible job of staying true to Frank Herbert's original vision of the Dune universe.

A great addition to an excellent series of books.
