A Buffet of Creepy Weirdness

never ever buy anything from HorrorBabble.

These are among my very favorite authors. Unfortunately, I hadn't noticed who was reading these stories. Half of the time I couldn't understand what he was saying and his inflections were grating on the ears to the point I was only able to get a couple hours into the book before giving up.

It's a story about a man that had a dream of going to space and using current technologies is able to do it. Now if we could just get the next six books in the series.

Story
The Muad'Dib's jihad is in full swing. His warrior legions march from victory to victory. But beneath the joy of victory there are dangerous undercurrents. Paul, like nearly every great conqueror, has enemies - those who would betray him to steal the awesome power he commands. Paul himself begins to have doubts: Is the jihad getting out of his control? Has he created anarchy? Has he been betrayed by those he loves and trusts the most? And most of all, he wonders: Am I going mad?

Dune : review.
Reviewed: 11-25-19
The book would have been excellent other than the reader trying to do his own emotional voice inflection very poorly. He also don't seem to know how to pronounce character names along with other mispronounced words. To bad this was recorded over ten years ago..

It would have been much more enjoyable if Scott Brick had known to pronounce many of the story's important words and names. Everytime he does this, it pretty much stops the story dead in its tracks.

Story
As a child, Chris Hooper dreamed of monsters. But in deep space, he found only darkness and isolation. Then, on planet LV178, he and his fellow miners discovered a storm-scoured, sand-blasted hell - and trimonite, the hardest material known to man. When a shuttle crashes into the mining ship Marion, the miners learn that there was more than trimonite deep in the caverns. There was evil, hibernating and waiting for suitable prey.
