Dune
Our foray into multiple realities continues this month with Frank Herbert’s novel Dune. Political intrigue, prophecy, and some sweet knife skills come together in this sci fi classic.
While a bit tangental to the string theory trip we’ve been on, it deftly portrays overlapping realities and they’re consequences. It’s a favorite book for us here at Book Club and we’re confident that you’ll enjoy it, too.
The audiobook for ‘Dune’ is also highly recommended. It’s a full radio play with multiple actors and high production value.
Quick word of caution, there have been a couple of movie adaptions to Dune. None really do the story justice but if you must watch, the SyFy series from 2000 is the best by far. Really, Tor agrees 🙂
