Here we have the Science Fiction classic, Dune by Frank Herbert, first published in 1965. This edition was published by Ace Books in 2019. They are also releasing matching editions of Dune Messiah and Children of Dune. This edition also comes with in updated introduction by Brian Herbert.

The book comes with a really nice dust-jacket, and to be honest, the dust-jacket might be the best thing with this edition. Sadly the book is bound in a glued perfect binding, and it’s also bound in a fairly low quality paper binding, making this book an expensive paperback in disguise.

However from what I can tell the book is printed on acid-free paper and it’s printed and bound in the US. The paper is fairly thin and a bit flimsy. The text size is medium. The book also have illustrated endpapers which are great. The art is by Matt Griffin.

Here you can also see a page which is starting to rip off straight after opening it for the first time. It’s really a shame that publishers again and again get away with calling books deluxe editions and giving them a fancy dust-jacket while cutting on quality as much as possibly.

The paper binding also looks and feels cheap, and for a book that costs 40 dollars I’m expecting a lot more. But this is another example of a book to movie money grab that are so common with publishers nowadays. It works when the quality is good, but when they produce books like this I’m really disappointed.
