These authors show no respect for the original

I feel scammed. Brian Herbert and KJA have no respect for Frank Herbert's great art.

Not nearly as good as the short stories

Revisado: 12-23-17

Suddenly Sapkowski tries too hard with unfitting and unwarranted grandiose imagery and the fascinating style of connected short stories is abandoned.

The first in an exciting but ultimately bad story of the young Ciri suffering and suffering and suffering and vain attempts at depth by insisting on and repeating poor metaphors. And suffering. Torture and rape over and over has replaced the moral dilemmas that gave the short stories such depth.

If you enjoyed The Last Wish and Sword of Destiny, then I recommend you enjoy them again rather than start on these novels.

Very intriguing story, well performed

Revisado: 12-22-17

Most noticeable difference from the previous Dune books is that we hardly have a main character, but the intrigues and destiny of the old empire, the Bene Gesserit, and all of humanity is at least as exciting to follow as that of a single person.

Heretics of Dune outs the events of the previous books in an interesting perspective and tells us more about what the God-Emperor actually achieved, and yet leaves the Golden Path as a bit of a mystery still.

The narrator does a good job, but unfortunately only does about 5 different voices (and just 2 accents) for all the many, many characters that speak during this story. More variation would have given him the 5th star from me.

Awful sound quality

Revisado: 11-17-17

Really poor sound quality, like it's copied from a scratched tape, and while it's obviously been through some digital noise reduction, it's still poor. But very good story, and I have nothing bad to say about the reader's performance, just a really cheap and poor job by the studio.

Flawed performance

Revisado: 06-11-17

One or two of the actors are doing a really poor job, but the story is fantastic and most of the performance is good.

Parts have music and other background sounds. It can be distracting and annoying, but it's always fairly brief (usually a minute or two).

Exciting, well told, and even provoking in places

Revisado: 04-09-17

Just a great book. Peter Kenny's only fault is that ghosts get a bit annoying with their slow and breathy voices when they have a lot to say. Other than that I can't imagine anyone doing a better job of this book.

rape and torture instead of interesting plots

Revisado: 04-09-17

Loved the short stories, but this is unpleasant cheap garbage. Nothing interesting happens in the story and you just get a bunch of dreadful torture and rape scenes as a replacement for anything interesting and exciting happening.
