A lot of the people think that the last two were worse than the ones before, but personally I don’t see the problem with them. Heretics is probably my favorite Dune book, with chapterhouse and god-emperor as close seconds. Anybody else have thoughts?

    I really enjoy them too. I feel like Herbert took the series to a woeid but intuitive place via those novels. I think some people forget that there are huge chronological gaps between the earlier novels and God-Emperor onwards. So there will naturally be character continuity issues. But Herbert handled them well. My only complaint is the abrupt and weird ending for Chapterhouse. But Herbert couldn’t control his own death, so that’s understandable.

    Also, heads up that we have a community on Lemmy that’s dedicated to Dune material (novels, movies, etc.) - [email protected]
