Dune
Join us as we discuss one of the Hugo Award winners for 1966 (there was a tie!): Frank Herbert's Dune.
Host: Christine D. Baker, a historian who lives in Vancouver, BC. You can find her at @klaxoncomms.com on Bluesky or follow what she's reading at her website: https://klaxoncomms.com/reading/
This month's guest is Stephen Kotowych, who is probably best known for putting together yearly anthologies on the Year's Best Canadian Science Fiction & Fantasy. The kickstarter for volume 4 closed in May, but the book should be available to non-backers in early Fall. Stephen is also a SFF writer and has published several award-winning and nominated short stories. (You can find all this info on his website.) You can find him on Bluesky at @ourmankoto.bsky.social.
From about 11:54 to about 33:46, Christine is recapping the book, which has A LOT of spoilers. The rest of the episode isn't spoiler free, but that section goes through the plot in detail.
Intro sound by Breakz Studios!
