A beautiful continuation of the Dune Saga. This book dives even deeper into the religious politics of the Dune universe than the two previous, and makes you excited to read God Emperor of Dune.

A very strong finish to the first half of the Dune series. Tensely emotional and a perfect end point to the story that began with the first book. It's more of a tragedy than the other books in the series, which is a hard thing to beat, and the ending of it is just haunting...

Each book in the Dune series seems more confusing and complex than the last. It takes me a while to understand what’s happening but when I do it’s excellently written and intriguing.
