Right now, I'm on the third (or fourth depending on how you count it) book of Frank Herbert's Pandora trilogy / quartet. A friend recommended it to me a year ago, and it's about the colonization of a planet called Pandora and the creation of an artificial intelligence that the people there come to worship as a god. It's definitely an interesting series of books in that they're thought provoking, but the writing seems kind of sloppy to me. A lot of the themes Herbert explores are also covered in his book Dune, which is a masterpiece. So in the end, I wouldn't recommend the Pandora books (unless you're a big sci-fi fan), but I would of course recommend Dune.
What's everyone else reading right now? Would you recommend it to others?
