After reading the first part of the book I was ready to call it the best book from the Dune series. 5/5 for the plot, characters. But right after Leto left Ghanima in the desert his story became so boring to me. I couldn’t stop checking how many pages were left in the chapter about his spice trips and attempts to escape Gurney Halleck…

Although the 3rd book still managed to impress me the way the 1st book did and made me love Dune series even more. So hyped for the 4th book!!!
