"Boasting eye-popping art from Raúl Allén and Patricia Martin... Dune: The Graphic Novel is a scene-by-scene adaptation of the beloved novel from two writers who are already very familiar with the worlds of Arrakis and beyond."-- "The Hollywood Reporter"

"It's Dune, but easier on the eyes...That means you can indulge a bit here, taking time to remind yourself of what makes the original source material so good..."-- "Polygon"

"The palette practically makes Arrakis' blazing heat and desolation jump off the page...This art is gorgeous."-- "Nerdist"

"...an adaptation worthy of continuing the franchise's legacy for a new generation."-- "Comic Book Resources"

"...a breathtaking new comic book adaptation."-- "SPACE.com"

"The core of what made Dune a great science fiction novel has been preserved, and to it are added vibrant visuals in Dune: The Graphic Novel, Book 1--a resoundingly successful adaptation."

-- "Foreword STARRED Review"

"Raúl Allén and Patricia Martín take a dense story and apply all that nuance and subtext to their visual language in adapting Dune. Panels establish scope and geography, and showcase the character who has the power in a scene, all the while guiding you as if you were on a theme park ride through the wild sci-fi action of warring families and giant sand worms. These two have pulled off a rare feat and made a political tale visually compelling."

"Intricate . . . well defined . . . easy to follow . . . blending the aristocratic costumery, sci-fi technology, and desert landscape into a world that is unmistakably Dune."-- "Booklist"

"A much-needed addition to the series started by Frank Herbert decades ago."-- "The Nerd Daily"

"The carefully chosen color palettes are particularly compelling, conveying the perfect sense of mood in every situation...a good gateway into the world of Dune."-- "Boing Boing"
