Frank Herbert: Dune (1990, Ace Books) 4 stars

Contains appendices and extra material.

I really didn't like the afterword, but the book itself had me rapt from start to finish. A little archaic in the social and political constructs for my taste, but maybe that's the point.

Not exactly a pleasant world, Arakis. Still interested in the other books, but I'll be happy to spend my time somewhere else for a while.

David Mitchell: Cloud Atlas (EBook, 2004, Random House Trade Paperbacks) 4 stars

Now a major motion picture starring Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Susan Sarandon, and Hugh Grant, …

Just picked this up from the local branch, and I'm excited. The movie based on this is one of my favourites, and I've never even spoken to someone who liked the movie, nevermind loved it, like I do.

Anyway, I've heard the book is good, so this promises to be a treat.
