This is a very good piece of science fiction it really gives quite an insight into what is consciousness, what is God and the correlation between the two if any. It raises big philosophical questions in a sometimes entertaining science fiction setting which is what you'd expect from any Frank Herbert novel. However, although it provided me with a lot of information to speculate on there were entire chapters which I dreaded to read. There were a few moments where I debated putting the book down altogether as many times it talks in pseudo-terminology and needless space babble. I actually found that a little of this set the tone for how complex all this futuristic technology worked but after a while it gets a bit much. I would recommend this book for people who very much like Frank Herbert and are willing to go through a bit of sluggish writing to get a bit more speculation on his ideas however if you have not read any other Frank Herbert a lot of them are much less dry than this and I recommend another. Overall I am glad I read it but I found a huge amount of it to be irrelevant and a bit of a waste of time.

Destination: Void: Prequel to the Pandora Sequence Received the book only a few days after placing the order, significantly sooner than expected, so I am most pleased with the dispatch and delivery. The book itself is good quality, printed on quality paper, looks very good overall*, and I cannot wait to read it! * I wasn't judging the book by its covers, I was merely trying to underline - in an objective manner - that it is a good quality product.

Destination: Confusion Four-dimensional construction, he reminded himself. "Listen, we have to construct a net in depth that contains complex world-line tracks. It has to absorb nonsynchronous transmissions. It has to abstract discrete patterns out of the impulse oversend. The important thing is structure— not the material . The important thing is topology. That’s the key to the whole damn problem! " Easy for you to say, Bickle! You lost me after "Listen". I was listening to the Audible audio book version of Destination Void when I realized something sounded familiar: I had accidentally started thirty minutes before my last point and despite careful listening (this book demands full attention) I barely recognized what I'd just heard. Frankly, I barely understood it anyway. Herbert's tackled a difficult subject - the nature of consiousness and the creation of a conscious AI - and the resulting novel, while interesting, is a tough nut to crack. There's the subject itself and there's the dense techno-babble (most of which sounds outdated but likely was obscure and idiosyncratic even when first written) which combine into a dense treatise that is only intermittently intelligible. Personally, I had to get the Kindle ebook and re-read the novel slowly and carefully. I enjoyed Destination Void but it's hard to recommend. If you're interested in sci-fi novels involving space travel, consciousness and intelligence there are other more recent novels like Peter Watts' Blind Sight. If you're continuing with Herbert's Pandora series, the books do get friendlier.

Read More Herbert. He has a message for humanity. Great book about how an AI might be created and what it might want once having been created. A must read for folks who want to understand how we have already entered the age of AI.

What is Consciousness? Such a great read!!
