I still don't get it

It's the sequel. I think there are three books in all. I liked Dune a lot, but this one seems less mystical and way more political, which is a bit dull.

It's the third book of six actually. I like the second book, Dune Messiah, better; it's essentially the tragedy of Paul. The second trilogy isn't as good.

Six, wow. I guess once you have a successful book and decide to do a sequel it all tends to spiral out of control.

In Dune time though, this one I'm reading seems to follow Dune directly, with him supposedly dying/wandering in the desert soon after having kids cause the story here seems to be about the kids.

It's not terribly long after it, I think. Just a few years maybe. Dune Messiah is in between the two though. The later trilogy is set a long time later, a couple of thousand years for the last two books.

The Vampire Diaries: The Awakening and The Struggle by L. J. Smith it didnt impress me so much like House Of Night serie did! but still good one and good end, i'll read the other novels of this serie.

..***..

The Vampire Diaries: The Fury and Dark Reunion by L. J. Smith, definitely better than the first one! more love, more escape, more fight, more thrill

..***..

How different can all those books be?

 

[ĵџvє_вãвγ]

shut up! ..***..

Just finished a fairly boring book about business leadership "Tribal Leadership". Lord what a difference from actual literature, the text is so dumbed down that it's like a tv commercial, noone can fail to grasp it.

Never would have read it if it hadn't been a free audiobook download on some website.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson, one great detective novel, loved it

..***..

I saw that in the bookstore, I thought it'd be just another book. I should get it eh?

 

[Martin]

I just started on Yevgeny Zamyatin's "We". Utopian novel from the 1920s. It's supposed to be up there with "Brave New World" and "1984". Looking very good so far.

Wouldn't it be distopian then?

No, it's utopian at least at the start lol
