Van alle 5 boeken die ik tot nu toe heb gelezen vind ik dit deel misschien wel de beste. Ik vind het lastig uit te leggen waarom, maar ik ga het toch proberen.
Ten eerste is het verhaal vanuit een hele andere hoek weer geschreven, het volgt nu veel meer de eerwaarde moeders, waardoor je weer een heel ander aspect van het verhaal en het universum meekrijgt. Daarnaast is de verhaallijn gewoon erg goed bedacht en niet cliche of voorspelbaar, het voelt net alsof hij het verhaal ook zelf bedenkt terwijl hij het schrijft. Het einde is wel een beetje een anticlimax, omdat hij niks heeft geschreven over de ondergang van Teg en over de gevechten tegen de achtenswaarde Maters en de verstrooiden.
Ook deze weer, een erg goed boek. Nu op naar boek 6, ben benieuwd wat Frank Herbert dan weer voor me in petto heeft.

it was nice to actually get some good plot after God Emperor! this one was slow and quick exactly when it needed to be, the ending floored me, and i’m very intrigued to see where this series ends.

i struggled with this one a lot. dune differs from most other series where you don’t have the same or similar cast of characters from one book to the next. the story has spanned 5000 years which is a lot to intake and makes getting into each new story a bit difficult, which was very true for me here. i was hoping that all the build-up with the characters was going to lead to something a bit bigger like previous books, so i couldn’t keep the three star chain chugging in good faith
