This book probably has the most awesome chapter of the first Dune trilogy, where Jessica and Alia are in the Great Hall. Knowing that this scene will never become a movie saddens me a great deal. The powers and the influence of Bene Gesserit terrified me the most in this book. I've never loved Jessica more in this series. Yet I miss Paul and Chani so much. Ghanima and Leto II have enthralled me so much that I must continue reading the next few books.
