This book took some time to get into, and initially I found it frustrating that we would move from one character just as it’s getting interesting, to a character which hasn’t had much development yet or many key events occurring. Definitely a slow burn to begin.
By the time I got to the second chapter, most of these issues were resolved though and I was keen at the end of each character focus to see where the next one would go. By the end, it is so jammed packed with events and drama or action that I struggled to put it down.
I’ll try not to spoil things, but one character did get their just desserts, but I wish they had called a spade a spade if you will (I hate when a character you think is gone comes back books later to fill a plot hole). I’m not holding my breath, but it would be nice to see that chapter close.

The drop in the quality of the prose from its predecessors is jarring. After overcoming that and powering through, it's a passable continuation of an absolutely brilliant story, but this series helped me realize that nepotism can produce quality actors and singers, but not writers.

- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated

- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Expanding on the Omnius and Erasmus plot line took way too long in my opinion. Previous books would atleast start the final reveal maybe 50-100 pages before the end, but Hunters of Dune had only the last 10-15 pages as the “big” reveal.

This book was rather infuriating. Not only did the word “whores” appear what felt like more than the previous six books combined, but the sexism somehow got worse? I’m excited to be almost done with these books.

Horrible. Just horrible. I finally abandoned it. What a waste of $4.I should've had a Happy Meal instead. Or given the cash to a wino.

3/3,5 ⭐️ beter te lezen dan veel voorgaande delen. Zeker op het laatst zit er wel echt een spanningsboog in het verhaal waardoor je graag het einde wilt weten.
