you cant decide on wether a book is good or not only after a few pages. you have to read the whole thing.

I tried once to read Dune, got a nose bleed and shelved it. I tried to read a Tom Clancy book, the one about Clark, and same thing.

I don't have the interest to read overtly stuffy, long worded, drawn out, boring material. I would rather wait for the movie.

Sorry guys.
try some of Heinlein's Young Adult stuff, they are all light to read, not long drawn out stuff like Asimov's stuff tends to be. Have Space Suit will travel for example. I have read that something like five times
his (Heinlein's) adult stuff tends to be a little bit more drawn out and a little harder to read.
