Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not Funny At All
Review: Contrary to what the book jacket says, this book is wildly unfunny. The 'allegory' to it is simple, unoriginal. Instead of rebelious teenage humans, we have rebelious teenage aliens; aliens whose description at worst is hard to visualize, and at best just makes one cringe at how nasty they look.
Just becuase the author is Frank Herbert's son does not make him his protegee. Having not read his other work, I cannot vouch for their quality, but this piece just isn't very good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Brian Herbert deserves some of father Frank's spotlight
Review: It has been many years since I read Sudanna, Sudanna, and seeing no review here saddens me because I found this to be a most enjoyable book to read. Brian Herbert obviously is not the great author his famous father Frank Herbert (Dune) was, but he is nonetheless a very good one, and this book lead me to read quite a few of his books. Finding any of Brian Herbert's books in store is a real challenge, so one should take advantage of book finding services. Sudanna, Sudanna is full of wit and contains some of the funniest scenes I've ever read in Sci-Fi. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Sudanna, Sudanna
Review: This book is no where near the level of the Dune books, but is still a worthwhile read. There are some very funny moments in this book and some unexpected twists. My only real problem with the book was with the book ended. I felt that there were still many unanswered questions that you would want to know. It almost seems as if there should be a follow up book or some epilouge that wraps up some of the loose ends. I did thoroughly enjoy this book and believe that people that enjoy the works of Frank Herbert and Brian Herbert will enjoy this one.
