Story
Breakfast of Champions (1973) provides frantic, scattershot satire and a collage of Vonnegut's obsessions. His recurring cast of characters and American landscape was perhaps the most controversial of his canon; it was felt by many at the time to be a disappointing successor to Slaughterhouse-Five, which had made Vonnegut's literary reputation.

Great performance.
After I read God Emperor about five years ago, to me, it was one of the most engrossing book I had ever read.
This audiobook does the novel justice. Each of the voice actors match the mood and atmosphere nicely.
My one dislike I have with the audiobook, in my opinion, would have to be the woman narrator. She was great up until she did the voice of Leto. Having the male narrator do all the voices even the women kind of became stale. So allowing a lady to add a touch of feminism sure kept me listening. That being said, the male should have jumped in. Again that is my opinion.
I would definitely recommend this audio to all the fans of the dune novels for sure. Also, to individuals who may of had a hard time reading the novel.
And of course, to those who enjoy audiobooks in general.
My rating comes from my true opinions which I have just expressed.

Not as good as the others.
The performance was good and engaging but just could not make up for the books shortcomings. Overall the book was slow, had little action, overly focused on sex, and had a lot of screwed up philosophy.
It want all bad though. The closure it gives on Leto's story and his golden path is good and nice to have.

this book expecially, but this entire series is saturated with political and Military wisdom . it is as valuable to me in the philosophical sense, as it is being the most important science fiction epic ever written... in my humble opinion at least.
somebody could actually bass a religion around the ideas proposed in this book.

For the Most Part, Great to Listen to
I really loved Simon Vance, and most of the other voices. The characters, Leto, Moneo, and Duncan are done well, and to hear the book read really makes it easy to enjoy, right down to the layered philosophical arguments. I was able to enjoy Moneo and Leto's back-and-forth this time around, which I never really picked up on before, when I read the book years back.
What I didn't like were the readings of the Stolen Journals. Bleh. The tone seemed nasally, and the performance overcooked. Other than that I really enjoyed this book.

Was Frank Herbert prophetic?
Any additional comments?
Herbert's abilities to analyze and predict human thoughts and actions in different kinds of government was amazing. It almost was freaky as to the commentary it made on our state of affairs and this was written years ago. Absolutely amazing!
