Review: true Dune style books - Having read the first of the original Dune series books I really liked this trilogy. Reading them it not only filled the gaps that are mentioned in the original Dune series about what happened in the past and how things came to be they way they are then but only provided for some very pleasant reading. Sure , maybe the stories don't really always work with the way things are in the Dune series but that's not so much the point. There books are of good quality in my opinion. What I really liked when reading this trilogy is what I also really liked when reading the original series written by Fran Herbert, the depth of the books. They are not simply SciFi books, they look at the psychology behind it all, they analyze human behavior, they cover sensitive topics such as religion, war and others. You can read about a lot of things and I feel there is something beyond the story in the Dune books. Sure maybe some things a rather silly but I think the topics covered make them worth reading at least once. In the end I would say I don't regret one minute of the time spent reading these and certainly not the money I spent on them. I gave the first set away as a gift after reading it and I'm ordering another set to give to my friends to read and to keep in my library. My advice, buy this trilogy, it's certainly worth it.
Review: A chilling saga that makes Terminator look quite tame - These books tell the story of the war against robots that set the stage for the universe of Dune 10000 years later. If you are a Dune fan, you have heard about Mentats, the Butlerian Jihad, the Bene Gesserit, the Guild, etc. This is where it all started, as told by Frank Herbert's son. The books tell the story of a struggle for survival between humanity and machines, at a scale far more violent and bigger than the machines in Terminator. The final victory of the human race comes at such a high cost that any kind of advanced machine is forever banned from the universe of men and replaced with biological equivalents. These books are extremely violent but cannot be put away. I really enjoyed reading them and highly recommend them.
