It wasn't quite what i was expecting, being a massive fan of the musical. It's definitely not as light and fun as the musical - it's a lot darker and deeper. However I did enjoy it as a standalone novel. The twists from the original story are so clever and its much more emotional and also quite political.

Breaking Into Sci-Fi

Looking to break into the sci-fi genre? To be fully immersed in a time and place both familiar and strange? Dune takes social political structures from our world and creates worlds, families, feuds, and builds such a complex universe that the end of the book comes much too soon!

Couldn't put it down!

This book is amazing! A diverse set of twenty somethings embark on a great adventure. There's espionage, political savvy, action, and magic! The characters are so relatable!

Not only does Caruso provide intriguing plots and clever dialogue but the themes she explores are thought provoking and deep.

I recommend this novel for anyone and everyone!

really smart well written political action story

really great page and panel layout very creative

even thought i liked the punisher war machine run this was a great return to form to the traditonal version of the punisher while still building upon the story beats put together in that previous run
