From Publishers Weekly

In 1965 Frank Herbert published Dune. After it was heralded as a masterpiece of science fiction, he wrote the briefer Dune Messiah in 1969, concentrating eponymously on Paul Atreides, and then, sensing the sales potential, added sequels. They were continued by his son, culminating in the just published finale, Sandworms of Dune. Now, 38 years after its publication, four narrators capture Dune Messiah on discs, while listeners, with no glossary, try to recall the meaning of its esoteric nomenclature. The audio gets off to a lively start as the book opens with nearly all conversation, playing up the camaraderie between the narrators who have partnered on several other readings of classic sci-fi novels. While the cast works well together, some of the male narrators emphasize a stately dullness. Kellgren, the sole feminine voice, supplies real emotion and a true sense of awe. (Oct.)

From AudioFile

Fans will be overjoyed by this stellar production of Frank Herberts second installment in the Dune series. Picking up the plot with the rise to power of MaudDib, listeners will be entranced by the drama on the planet Arrakis. Will the quest for a super being that can reign over men be realized, or will the lust for power turn deadly? DUNE MESSIAH answers these questions and more through an expert full-cast narration that makes listeners feel as if theyre on Arrakis themselves. The production features some of the best audiobook narrators in the business. Nine actors perfectly flesh out this epic, including the celebrated Simon Vance and Scott Brick.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Continuation..., Juil 16 2004
Par S. McCrea "s_mccrea" (Henderson, NV United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
but strangely short--given the first book's gargantuan size. The book also seems as tho' it didn't have Herbert's full attention. He seemed tacitly to admit this once when he said that "parts of Children of Dune were written before Dune was finished." It also suffers from the fact that it was first serialized in a SF magazine. It seems as tho' it were "remixed" after the fact.

Although Herbert continues to use the Prophet Mohammad's life as a scaffolding for his story, he departs widely from the Koran's account while still retaining an essentially Arab flavor to the story. (These books are, by the way, incredibly popular in the Muslim world.)

Those minor criticims aside, the story continues towards its headlong conclusion in the Golden Path. To say much more would spoil it for the uninitiated. If you liked Dune, read this one just to get to "Children" and, the piece de resistance, "God Emperor of Dune" where Herbert's mastery becomes complete and the Golden Path is revealed to us in all its terrible majesty.

The last two books before cancer and grief killed him were almost after thoughts. After Leto II, what was there to say?

2.0étoiles sur 5 What happened?, Jui 11 2004
Par Collin S. Garbarino (Pineville, LA USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Dune is a colossal work. Dune Messiah is a disappointing work. I don't understand how the same man could have written both books. Dune has strong characterization and a strong plot; Dune Messiah has neither. Dune Messiah substitutes characterization with psycho-babble. Half the dialogue in this book doesn't make any sense and doesn't further the plot. The ending is strong, but it doesn't make up for all the nonsense that Herbert subjected me to. (Don't let anyone try to tell you that this book is "deeper" than Dune because of all the confusing things the characters say. "Deep" only equals "confusing" for people who can't read.) All that said, Dune Messiah made me feel like I was reading Fanfic. It was mildly entertaining, but please don't confuse it with the real thing.

5.0étoiles sur 5 A more personal look at the cast, Avril 18 2004
Sure, not much happens in the book in terms of war and political intrigue, but this book really tells you who the people actually are and how they think. I really felt sorry for Alia and Paul, and I learned how must it suck to have their powers. I loved it.
