Author: Frank Herbert
Genre: Science Fiction
Summary: Set on the desert planet Arrakis, Dune is the story of the boy Paul Atreides—who would become known as Muad'Dib—and of a great family's ambition to bring to fruition humankind's most ancient and unattainable dream.
A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism and politics, Dune won the first Nebula Award, shared the Hugo Award, and formed the basis of what is undoubtedly the grandest epic in science fiction.

•MY REVIEW•
•Category 1- cover & description•The cover is cool. The summary could have been better.
4/5•Category 2- word choice, punctuation, grammar, spelling, sentence & paragraph structure•
The word choice of this book was very limited. Everything else was good.
17/20•Category 3- plot, setting, background/stories, characters•
There was a lot of plot holes. And the characters weren't described well.
10/30•Category 4- writing style & pace of the story•
The writing style wasn't very good. It lacked imagination and charisma. The pace of the story was super choppy.
2/15•Category 5- details & descriptions•
There was way too much dialogue in this book. There was barely any descriptions; and when there were descriptions, they weren't described very well.
5/20•Category 6- originality & overall creativity•
It is a super creative book. I was very disappointed with it because it said that it was one of the best science-fiction series of all time, and in my opinion it wasn't.
