Patricia Martin Poradie kníh

Grafický román Duna, adaptácia žánrovej klasiky science fiction od Franka Herberta, rozpráva príbeh Paula Atreida a jeho rodiny, ktorí na púštnej planéte Arrakis preberajú ťažbu mystickej drogy melanže, ktorá umožňuje cestovanie medzi hviezdami. Frank Herbert svojou Dunou a jej jedinečnou zmesou dobrodružstva, mystiky, ekológie a politických intríg spôsobil revolúciu v žánri science fiction. Jeho syn Brian Herbert spolu s autorom bestsellerov Kevinom J. Andersonom adaptuje toto dielo v troch zväzkoch ako grafický román, aby inšpiroval novú generáciu čitateľov. Spolu s Raúlom Allénom sa o grafickú realizáciu Herbertovej vízie postarala jedna z najvýznamnejších výtvarníčok na komiksovej scéne Patricia Martín a ilustrácie na obálke od legendy Billa Sienkiewicza pozdvihli projekt na úroveň, ktorú si táto výnimočná predloha zasluhuje. Po prvej časti bude bude nasledovať druhá s názvom Muad´Dib a tretia s názvom Prorok.

The book showcases Patricia Martin's exceptional talent in exploring the human condition, offering both empowerment and personal revelations through her artful expressions. Critics praise it as a powerful and joyous experience, highlighting its ability to resonate universally while also revealing intimate insights.

A singer-songwriter, Matt paints vivid pictures about love in his lyrics but real relationships give him writer's block. For someone hell-bent on avoiding commitment, he surprises himself when he seeks Stella out: she is unlike anyone he's ever met but he is still too scared to come right out and say what he really feels - not even if the happiness of a lifetime depends on it. Brought up on a diet of great heroes and heroines, Stella has set the romantic bar high but she's no fool. When she meets Matt in Florence, for a moment she thinks he is different, until he ends up with her best friend Jen. Still, it looks as if Fate is determined to keep them together as their friendship survives the ups and downs of the next decade. All comes to a head when both face marriage proposals and they begin to regret the road not taken. Stella leaves her career in Hong Kong for New York and Matt, determined to lay all ghosts to rest.
