Recensione:

Raves for Dune: House Harkonnen

"[Fans] rejoice in this chance to return to one of science fiction's most appealing futures."
--The New York Times Book Review

"Rich interweaving of politics and plotting made the Dune novels special. And Dune: House Atreides does its predecessor justice."
--USA Today

"A spirited and entertaining adventure--The real pleasure here comes from watching the authors lay out the plot threads that will converge in Dune."
--The Philadelphia Inquirer

"(The authors) have brought this classic saga back to an exciting and dynamic life."
--The Denver Post

"A rousing story."
--The New York Post

"The attendant exciting and myriad revelations not only make this novel a terrific read in its own right bull will inspire readers to turn, or return, to its great predecessor."
--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Dune: House Atreides is a terrific prequel, but it's also a first-rate adventure on its own. Frank Herbert would surely be delighted and proud of this continuation of his vision.
--Dean Koontz

"Written in a style so close to the original that it is hard to believe Frank Herbert did not direct it through some mysterious genetic link--I can't wait for the sequel."
--Rocky Mountain News
