Negative Positive
Title: Save you money,
Review: I've been reading Sci-Fi and fantasy for about 40 years and I've rarely come across a book that I've wanted to pitch through the nearest window. This is one of those. The authors suffer from a severe case of adjective-itis and try to blend way too many story lines and characters together. The characters are one dimensional and hard to identify with. The villians are cartoonishly evil, the science poor to non-existant and the military and battle scenes almost silly.The dialog is painfull and stilted, more like something from a Victorian melodrama than what we expect from modern Sci-Fi writers. The overall impression is something like a bad Sci-Fi movie from the '50's or the old Batman TV series. The only reason I can see that this drivel was published is because it carries the "Dune" chachet. Unless you are the Dune equivalent of a Trekkie give this one a pass.
