I devoured the Dune series when in High School... up to a point.
I don't even remember which book I was on when I just quit in the middle of it. God Emperor sounds right because the plot synopsis for Heretics doesn't taste familiar.
Most books that I read like that, I've revisited and reread. Not Dune.
When I quit in mid book, I was DONE.
Yet... Thanks to the movie, I'm considering rereading the first book.

I thought the mini-series was pretty darned good. Not totally fantastic, but much better than the De Lorentis movie.
ReplyDeleteThe two mini-series set a pretty high mark for sticking to the story, for the most part.

Almost the only bok I didn't finish cover to cover.
