Editorial reviews

Arrakis - immer wieder eine Reise wert

Frank Herberts Wüstenplanet gehört zu den größten Sci-Fi-Romanen überhaupt und wurde 1984 von David Lynch höchstpersönlich verfilmt. Wie es mit Klassikern so ist, gibt es immer wieder noch bessere Übersetzungen - so auch in diesem Jahr mit Dune geschehen. Selbst Kenner der Geschichte über den Planeten Arrakis, auf dem der Kampf um das einzigartige Melange, das "Gewürz aller Gewürze" entbrennt, werden der neuen Vertonung erliegen, denn Mark Bremer und Uta Dänekamp lesen den Kultroman einfach überirdisch gut.

Publisher's summary

Tausende von Jahren in der Zukunft und eine fantastische Welt: Arrakis, der Wüstenplanet. Einzigartig, herrlich – und grausam. Und doch haben es die Menschen geschafft, sich dieser lebensfeindlichen Umwelt anzupassen... Vor fünfzig Jahren erschien Frank Herberts Roman Der Wüstenplanet – ein Datum, das den Beginn einer großartigen Erfolgsgeschichte markiert: Der Wüstenplanet wurde zum weltweiten Bestseller und 2021/2024 von Denis Villeneuve spektakulär neu verfilmt. Die Filme Dune 1 und Dune 2 umfassen inhaltlich den ersten Band der Wüstenplanet-Reihe. Heute gilt der Roman als Meilenstein der Zukunftsliteratur – ein monumentales Epos, das jede Generation neu für sich entdeckt.

Did not enjoy the German version.

Audio was low, female voice was hard to understand. It would have been prudent to just read the book and not make a play out of it.

Worthy of a masterpiece

Dune is near and dear to me, my favorite novel, which I have read several times and listened to at least a dozen more times. I very much enjoyed the English reading by George Guidall (released on compact disc), and a few years ago I listened to the German reading by Simon Jäger, Jürgen Prochnow, and Marianne Rosenberg. I found it very disappointing, to the point that I wondered whether the magic of the book had been lost in translation. Thankfully that is not the case, as evidenced by this reading. I thoroughly enjoyed Mark Bremer's performance, and Uta Dänekamp did a passable job for Princess Irulan's per chapter lead-in quotes, certainly good enough to support the main narration. This recording is worthy of the masterpiece, and I will listen to it again (and again?).
