The desert planet Arrakis, called Dune, has been destroyed. Now, the Bene Gesserit, heirs to Dune's power, have colonized a green world—and are tuning it into a desert, mile by scorched mile. Chapterhouse Dune is the last book Frank Herbert wrote before his death: A stunning climax to the epic Dune legend that will live on forever.

From whose perspective now?
Revisado: 02-04-24
The different Narrators with different pronunciations really made it difficult for me to follow the story.

Historia
Here is the novel that will be forever considered a triumph of the imagination. Set on the desert planet Arrakis, Dune is the story of the boy Paul Atreides, who would become the mysterious man known as Maud'dib. He would avenge the traitorous plot against his noble family and would bring to fruition humankind's most ancient and unattainable dream.

Narrator 1. Voice actors 0
Revisado: 11-02-23
The switching between narrator and voice actors got so annoying I couldn't finish listening past the first 30 minutes. I wish there was a version without the individual voice actors.

Historia
A disturbing tale of a young man's uncanny ability to remain both young and beautiful while descending into a life of heartless debauchery, The Picture of Dorian Gray was considered proof of both Wilde's genius and his perversion. Oscar Wilde's scandalous best seller of 1891 was one of the most damning pieces of evidence used against him in the trial that brought about his downfall.

Great story, just wish it was engineered better
Revisado: 11-01-23
Great story, my only criticism is the engineering. rhe volume would get so low I had to turn up the volume. Then all of a sudden it was so loud.

Historia
The last time Thread attacked Pern, the world was unprepared for the fight - until the Oldtimers appeared. These courageous dragonriders arrived from the past, traveling 400 years to help their descendants survive. But the collision of past and present took its toll. While most of the displaced rescuers adapted to their new reality, others could not abide the jarring change and found themselves in soul-crushing exile, where unhappiness and resentment seethed.

Not The Life of Pi
Revisado: 09-21-22
I was really hoping to get more out of this book. As others have mentioned, there are several issues that can be brought up. While I can generally forgive different styles of storytelling what is difficult are character and world changes, it's just lazy. With regard to the story telling everytime a nickname was used I would cringe. With regard to the narration the mispronunciation of names and locations was like fingernails on a chalkboard.

Star Studded Cast
Revisado: 09-29-20
As usual Marc Thompson delivered Timothy Zahn's story with total style.
Marc Thompson really is a master of his craft and really makes this story come to life. I must admit though there were times I couldn't help but smile at the similarities to other movie and television characters.
- Grand Admiral Thrawn as played by Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp)
- Grand Admiral Davit as played by Captain Marko Ramius (Sean Connery)
Anakin Skywalker as played by Ted Theodore Logan (Keanu Reeves)
Darth Vader as played by Commander Worf (Michael Dorn)
It just proves how much of a geek I truly am.

Performance disappointment

I realized why I don't listen to the series more often. The difference in the voices between the books just astounds me, especially while having the same narrator.

Really Disappointing
Revisado: 01-17-16
Of all the Horatio Hornblower book this is my favorite so I gave the story 3 stars because it is abridged. Listening, it felt more like a soap opera with all the extra background music. I wish they had the Christian Rodska version.

Historia
Set in a postapocalyptic world, this tale of courage, sacrifice, and heroism takes place against the backdrop of an age of steam and rational humanism, where the social elite have rejected religion and spiritualism as nothing more than quaint superstition. Brutal Vampire Clans rule half the world, keeping human herds for food, and Princess Adele, heir to the throne of Equatoria, is faced with grim choices. War is imminent and her marriage to the odious Senator Clark of America will cement an alliance uniting the Equatorian Empire and the American Republic.

Summer Blockbuster
Revisado: 11-08-15
So far the story reminds me of the typical Summer Blockbuster movie. All the right elemants, with all the fun and excitement. And with all the predictability. I really enjoy James Marster's performance, with the exception of the few mispronunciations which just grate on me personally.
