The Dune books have always been one of my favorite series ever and this was amazing chance to hear Frank Herbert read selected passages in his own way. It makes me want go back and read them all again.

Very nice to be able to listen to excerpts of Herbert’s Dune novels read by the author himself. The recording seems a little sped up for some reason. It sounds a little better and more natural when played at about 0.8x speed. I’m guessing the recordings were sped up originally to fit on LP records, which was their original release format.

** spoiler alert ** Interesting to hear the author himself read some of the scenes. I didn’t know what i was getting with this, but it was decent. It’s nice to relive key moments, and his own touch on reading was great.It’s for super fans. The production is pretty low quality, and Herbert is a much better story writer than he is a voice actor.Spoiler ——“Sorry Grandpa, but you’ve found the Atreides’ Gom Jabbar” (Alia’s line) was funny hearing Herbert say.
