The most human character in the series is a guy who is turning into a giant immortal alien worm and can see almost every potential future and is also every single person in his bloodline. I too would start saying complete nonsense and sabotaging myself for fun if I was in his place.

Messy, it felt like frank lost his train of thought a few times along the way, but I completely get why people say this is the best book of the dune series. My favourite is still messiah, but this is still wayyy up there
