An interesting ending to one of the most influential series to ever be written. I'll admit the last 2 books did not hit the same for me but I enjoyed living in these characters world a while longer. Herbert has a way of keeping you attentive even through a good amount of dry parts. I treasure this book and the entire series.

Did you like the sexy parts of heretics? Well buckle up for a book that includes all of the strangest, sexiest, and most boring parts of the series.

While this might sadly be the end of a trilogy never finished it still feels like an end of something (every part of dune did, so I was expecting this). It was a wonderful book to read and everything about it was as I wanted. The only thing that was rushed imo was the finale.

Great entry in the Dune saga. Even after reading the previous five books, I thought I had an idea of the broad contour of this series, and yet, somehow, this entry managed to take me by surprise and push the story into some place unfamiliar and exciting. I very much look forward to the last two entries. Highly recommended!

A great end to the series, with a great end of the book itself! Had me grabbing my head. Worth to read the last two books in the series from Frank for sure!

Meta ending. Pace picks up in and interesting ramp into a satisfying uncertainty.
