A review by vintovka
Dune by Frank Herbert
Did not finish book. Stopped at 0%.
Several artists I admire site Dune as their inspiration, so I was really curious about this book. It started fine: the setting and the worldbuilding were interesting, the characters were engaging, the religious symbolism and allusions promised something fun.
The pacing of the book is so, so, so slow, though. Almost nothing really happens. And since the forementioned allusions and symbolism fly over my head, I basically get nothing out of this book. It has interesting themes and interesting characters, but to read it is such a pain.
