I love a sequel that's thematically consistent but also wildly different plot-wise. This is a good one.

Un segundo libro y el más pequeño de la saga es una gran sorpresa que sea muy bueno donde se corrige de alguna forma ciertos detalles del primero.

Los nuevos personajes y los giros argumentales que al ser muy predecible la pluma de Herbert aquí no lo fue tan, no me esperaba tanta osadía al final. Igual que en Dune, El mesías de Dune toca temas de política, poder, religión, diversidad cultural, la especia «melange», ecológica, condicionamiento humano y modificación genética de una forma más fatesiosa y junto con ella el dilema ético. 

Me gusta la perspectiva un poco gris de los personajes principales sobre todo de Paul.             

Si necesitas algo que adorar, entonces adora la vida: ¡toda la vida, hasta el último vestigio! ¡Todos estamos juntos en esta belleza!               

“El sabio se moldea a sí mismo; el necio vive solo para morir”                 

Y la lealtad es un bien preciado. Se puede vender... no comprar, sino vender
