"Paul of Dune" is Excellent, June 1, 2009
By James C. Harwood "James C. Harwood"
This review is from: Paul of Dune (Hardcover)
I read the first Dune novel in 1968 at age 12. I've been a fan of Frank Herbert and the Dune series of novels ever since then. I consider the new work on the Dune series by Brian Herbert and Kevan J. Anderson to be as good as if not superior to the work of Frank Herbert. The words flow so easily in the Dune prequels they have written, they are all a real pleasure to read. "Paul of Dune" is set between the events in Dune and the events in Dune Messiah, but it includes flashbacks to Paul at age 12 in the time that followed the last prequel on the Dune time line. For me, the flashbacks were like visiting old friends. I look forward to more!

Incredible! I know just what you mean. I've known for a while that there are people like you out there, who think this way, and it's always a distinct pleasure to run across one of you!
