amazing book. the character development was breathtaking. and i guess for me the moral of the story is: extreme circumstances foster extreme and often volatile relationships. can you justify the things you do for someone when you realize how little you actually know them?

Leave it to Piers Anthony to ruin a perfectly good Philip K. Dick story

Another one that I picked up the the amazing food section of the Powell's in downtown Portland. It makes me want to have bees buzzing around my future garden.

A classic. A cleverly crafted story with complicated and interesting characters that come to life on the page. I wish I knew enough spanish to read the original, but the translation does a good job of capturing the irony and wit of the language. No wonder it's one of John Cusack's favorite books...

I tried to read this book in middle school and got through fifty pages. I tried twice in high school and got maybe half-way through. Now, six years out of college, I tried to pick it up again. And I finished it, but I can't say I've been missing much. "Dune" really wasn't all that good. Saying this, it's very easy to see why "Dune" is spoken about as the pinnacle of sci-fi achievement or as -the- sci-fi masterpiece. Herbert has a distinct style and ideas that are both thick and well-structured. His world is developed to a detailed and pristine degree and all of it seems flawlessly interconnected. Never did I feel like something was out of place or find that parts didn't compliment one another. In world-building, Herbert came up with something both believable and at the same time fantastic. The problem with this is his execution. Herbert has terrible diction (not as bad as Clarke, but still not great) and his prose is lengthy and boring. Normally I enjoy authors who take the time to describe setting and detail, but Herbert's was dry and unimaginative. Further, Herbert switches character POV too frequently and without enough warning. This seemed at first necessary as what Herbert was trying to do was (I think) show the various thoughts and ideas that were running through each of the character's minds to add to the stress and fear of delicate politics, but generally it read jumbled and confused. Also, even though I knew what everyone was thinking at (almost) every moment, I didn't feel that the characters were well developed, with the exception of Jessica. My largest problem with the book concerns its plot so: SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!! Herbert's set-up is great but his plot is terrible. The problem, perhaps, is that we know too much. From the beginning we know that Yueh is the traitor and even though some characters (Halleck and Hawat) suspect Jessica, they come to realize their mistake without drama or interest. "Dune"'s climax builds slowly and then suddenly leaps out, seemingly from nowhere, and confusingly comes to its height when the Baron is suddenly killed off. Then all the remaining bad-guys are paraded before Paul who cleans up their plot nicely and cleanly one at a time. It felt as if Herbert, all of a sudden, had to stop writing and swept the plot away as quickly as possible. In the end "Dune" was strangely too straight-forward, describing characters who are suspecting everything and everyone around them but aren't developed and executed well enough by the plot. Finally, there is something truly terrifying about the Bene Gesserit and I don't mean their "illuminati" quality. At the end we come to realize that they've been trying to manipulate the genes of the highest classes of society so that they can create the Kwisatz Haderach, a man who can go further than anyone else into the mysteries of the universe. But this assumes that someone's genetic makeup is what allows them to enter into religious/spiritual experiences, and that only a certain person with just the right genes can achieve this depth. What a terrifying way to think; I've read few things more dehumanizing. So "Dune?" Well, I finished it. I got through it after trying for, what, fifteen years? But I won't continue reading the series, nor would I suggest it to a friend. It was great potential but, when Herbert's ideas got to paper, they just puffed out and died.

Quick Pick As for me, and most of our class, I became very intrigued with the book and wanted to read it for myself. Some of the confessions were funny. For example, 'I used to fertilize a ring in our lawn every time I mowed it, it grew. My parents still think it was Aliens.' Or, 'I ate all the Blueberries (and they were delicious)'. However, I felt that the majority of the book was very sad! For example, '3 years ago, I tried to kill myself....now I'm 18 and people say I'm happy...but, I still want to die'. Or, 'Sometimes I wish that I was blind, just so I wouldn't have to look at myself everyday in the mirror.' This book is great because it shows people that not everything isn't can won't be 'perfect'. However, it is scary to think that those thoughts are going through not just adult minds, but teenagers as well. I wouldn't keep this in my library as a school librarian because of the sexual comments that are shared. I also don't know how comfortable I would be to really promote this in the public library setting. Although it isn't my place to decide what to promote and what not to I would seek advice as to how to handle this situation. However, if I were to promote it I wouldn't read the real deep and serious stuff I would aim more towards the funny comments. Obviously, it is very believable because it is all true!

There's plenty of controversy surrounding these books. They've been criticized for the apparent incestuousness of the relationship between the two main characters for about 2 books out of 3, for two secondary characters being gay and another a rather promiscuous lady. There's blood and gore and cold-hearted twistedness and frankly I don't think these are YA books. The characters are teenagers, but to me that's not enough to make a book suitable for teen reading. Then of course there was the scandal of Cassandra Clare allegedly plagiarizing everything fantasy from TV to books in her Harry Potter fanfiction. I haven't seen or read the allegedly plagiarized works or the said fanfic so am not qualified to have an opinion on this, I can say though that there are elements in MI that are common to other stories. The extremely powerful and charismatic villain with a group of supporters he gathered while they were all in school and the orphan courageous enough to stand up to him come to mind immediately and I think we all know what they're reminiscent of. Here's what makes that not matter to me: anything after the folk tales, myths and legends is a repeat, anything written now has been done before in one way or another and the important thing is not to create something absolutely original (that I think would be next to impossible) but to make something familiar your own and different. I think Cassandra Clare does that beautifully. I really enjoyed these books, could hardly put them down really. Ms. Clare's writing is witty, the characters are realistic enough with all their flaws and fine qualities, there's plenty of action and lovelorn adolescent angst to satisfy both types of readers. Even mild character continuity problems, like the bookish Clary who regularly skipped PE in the first book all of a sudden becoming strong and agile in the second, didn't ruin the experience. I loved how developed the world is with plenty of fantastical creatures, their intricate dynamics and how the fantasy world coexists with the regular world with the 'mundie' humans suspecting not a thing. If you are the kind of reader who can manage to not let the things I talked about in the first paragraph make these books unpalatable I think you're in for a treat and you should put them on your To Read list. They've made it to my To Buy list. Read more of my reviews at Bibliophile's Corner
