Review: Embryonic Frank Herbert--worth reading for Herbert aficionados

I love Frank Herbert's books, so this was an interesting peek into the writer as an "embryo." This reads like classic pulp Sci-Fi, but you can see the writer-to-come in some of the passages. It's too short, it's the kind of stuff you read in "Analog", it needs more fleshing out, but the themes of later Herbert books are twinkling in the darkness. It was free, it was interesting. It wasn't great.
