Plans within plans. Treacheries within Treacheries. Propaganda within propaganda.
The story folds and shifts on itself like the sandy waves of the titular planet. It is happening and has happened. We know how things will go as we read characters realize themselves. The trick is to never be so focused on the one to lose the whole. Colonizers are still colonizers, no matter what titles they claim. You will not be remembered as a wife or a hero or a father. Your worst fears are true.
Sand swallows all.
