The White Plague

Surprisingly, disappointingly dreadful.
The characters were flat, unlifelike and none incited any sympathy in me. The story would have looked vaguely interesting on a chalk-board, but was not fleshed out interestingly.
The book read like it had never been read. By the author. Full of idiotic verbosity.
A bore.
I loved the entire Dune series: perhaps my expectations were too high. Or perhaps his style of political generalities and semi-religious drama was transformed into, or revealed as, vapid vagueness when it was brought down to Earth. Or perhaps he simply wrote it too quickly, cashed it in, and did not bother to make it worthwhile reading.
