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

Item was listed as New, Unused, and Unopened. However, the only actual items I received were the 4 year old battery, battery box, and wired charging plate packaged in white foam wrapping. No breakaway switch, pin, or 48" cable which should have been included. When the Seller was advised of the issue, he did credit me back with a $20 + tax refund.

  • 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.

  • Great hard bound edition of Dune

    For something as dense as Dune, I prefer a larger print hardcover. This is a perfect format and good quality binding.
