I just loved this so much more than the original Dune. It shocked me because this one is almost universally listed as the worst Dune book.
I feel like the true themes of the first book only become clear in Messiah and the way it wraps those themes around the personal tragedy of Paul is amazing. I finished this yesterday and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since. I feel like I get the hype around Dune now and I can’t wait to read more.
