      Dune: Science Fiction’s Answer To Lord Of The Rings

      If science fiction has an answer to fantasy’s The Lord of the Rings – JRR Tolkien’s epic saga of the battle to defeat the Dark Lord, Sauron – then Frank Herbert’s Dune has to be a strong contender. Published in 1965, it is the story of the desert pla

      Of the SF Megapacks to date, this is by far the best. Modern stories seem to outweigh Golden Age stories, but there are stories from the 60s, 70s, and 80s here as well. Several are Hugo and Nebula nominees, though I don't think there are any actual winners. A fine collection and absolutely unbeatable at the price.
