  • A comparison between the trade paperback edition (Dune) and mass market paperback edition (Dune Messiah) of Frank Herbert's Dune books.
    I had to mute the video because the background noise was a bit loud when I was filming this. Here's a link to Hans Zimmer's cover of Pink Floyd's Eclipse if you want to listen to something while watching this video: • Dune Official Soundtra...
    EDIT: For the measurements part, sorry if they seem inaccurate based on how I measured them in the video. They’re more or less accurate. 🙂

    and that's is how you analize books as an object to buy. not just talking about it's colors and drawings in the cover.

    dude you should try reading the stormlight archive! its a bit hard if your not a fantasy fan, but if you like a book with excellent slap then I recommend reading SA, but if your not sure you should read the previous work of the author like mistborn! (book 2 is my fav)

      Hello Marnie! As much as I would love to answer your question, I'm not really sure since I just only started getting into books again after how many years .This is also my first mass market paperback :( I apologize. But if it helps, the Dune mass markets are definitely of good quality and I think they will last long.

      Yes they do! :) Both editions. Though I'm not sure if they are still in stock because the books have been in demand lately due to the upcoming movie. You can try checking their website in case you haven't.

      @luisito2174  3 роки тому +3

      I cracked the spine on mine and I really regret doing it because it left visible lines. Looking back, I don’t think it’s necessary to crack the spine but there’s definitely a bit of resistance but not to the point that you have trouble seeing the words.
