Title: Disappointing
Review: Having read the two previous (and all other Dune) books, this was disappointing. The characters were more one-dimensional than in the two previous books, the motivations simplistic, the plot less complex and more obviously contrived and directed toward the needed ending. Perhaps most symbolic, there was an unforgiveable error in the year dating the first part of the book; while it should have been printed as 107 B.G., it was written as 69 B.G. This is representative of the thin, poorly thought out nature of the book.
Is the review positive or negative?
