My favorite character in Dune was the planet. As a water scientist I really enjoyed hearing about the environmental and social issues that the author imagined would arise on a fantastically dry planet. I had several issues with the book that I struggled to overcome. I didn’t like that the main characters in the book were all rich and powerful royalty. I think the book would have been more interesting from the point of view of the poor or the servants. I also didn’t like the many clichés that were in the book. I realize that Dune is an important sci-fi novel and most of the clichés that bothered me probably originated from this book and were then copied by other authors. However, there’s the whole concept of a young man being chosen as “the one” that plays out in so many fantasy and sci-fi books. It begins to get a little old. I also found the female characters in the book to be largely uninspiring. The Lady Jessica was at least interesting, but I found it annoying how she was always ceding control to the males in her life. It’s the sort of thing that can be generally expected in old-school science fiction, but it was galling nonetheless. I would be interested to read some critiques of the way that Dune portrays minorities. Sci-fi is an interesting genre in that it often times takes the ingrained prejudices of it’s time, transforms them in an alternate universe and gives the reader a new perspective. There was the bene gesserit race, which was a matriarchy, made with the entire purpose of serving. They are often referred to derogatively as witches. They represent the fear of powerful women, wielding their power through procreation and mind control. Then there was the Baron, who was casually referred to as not just homosexual, but a child molester who wishes to commit incest. I’m not taking a “for or against” stance on these matters, I just find them interesting food for thought. Overall it was a fairly engaging book. I certainly plan on reading the rest of the series.
