Negative Positive
Title: Uggghhhhh
Review: Boy, was this book bad. I couldn't get through it quickly enough and onto my next read. None of the complexity of Frank's work. To call the characters "two-dimensional" is being generous.Is there a synopsis of the following two books? I'd rather not endure the chore of actually reading them.You know what really scares me? Certainly not a moron like Erasmus. Rather, the fact that B&K; are writing two books to follow Chapterhouse. Let's hope they take some of the magic pixie dust that helped Frank come up with such awesome stuff and hopefully avoid the sophomoric tendencies that led to this drivel.But semi-seriously, I suspect the only reason serious Dune fans spend time on these pulp novels is that we are so hooked on the entire Dune universe that we will wade through the horrible writing just to find out "what happens". Who can resist knowing something of the Butlerian Jihad?One final question: when are the Dune comics and pop-up books due? ;-)
Is the review positive or negative?
