Uh...wow..I'm not sure if I'm really up to the task after all. Though I'm thoroughly impressed with you for finding these aspects of a book enjoyable. But then, if I do read Dune and enjoy it, I will be very impressed with myself as well- so perhaps I will give it a shot.<br /><br />@ Melissa: I read a lot on my commute to work and back. I get to work by hitchhiking (not uncommon here) and by bus which leaves me a lot of time to read. <br /><br />@ Esther: Why am I the only on who has never heard of this book? While the pace is pretty slow, it still manages to grip you. Though I'm curious about the fact that I've seen this book reviewed on a few fantasy sites though I haven't seen any aspects of the book that would cause it to fall under this genre.Simchahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14730042073954228379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365304542230931817.post-22807482749342788592010-01-04T05:15:02.619-05:002010-01-04T05:15:02.619-05:00Shadow of the Wind is one of my favourite books.

It starts slow but then you find your self racing through eager to uncover the 'mystery'.<br /><br />I read Dune, and some of the sequels, a while ago but want to read it again. It was one of the worlds I truly became involved with - totally caught up with the fate of the characters and curious about their future. <br />Keep an eye out for words/phrases in Hebrew and Arabic.Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11276711065670111187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365304542230931817.post-22216043699114948782010-01-03T21:06:37.226-05:002010-01-03T21:06:37.226-05:00Wow all in one week!

I am really looking forward to this one. I just started it but am only on page 10. Have a great week!Melissa (My World...in words and pages)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09621830513280969319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365304542230931817.post-17463408985431484252010-01-03T21:00:16.634-05:002010-01-03T21:00:16.634-05:00I LOVE Dune, one of the best SciFi books I've ...I LOVE Dune, one of the best SciFi books I've ever read.
