I was initially put off from reading the Brian Herbert books due to his reputation online with the dune community however I must say I found this book very good. Learning more about how different technologies were developed that were present in the original series was awesome and I enjoyed the concept of the cymex and the thinking machines. In particular Erasmus stood out as a captivating machine. I will continue to read further in the series!
