My advice - not that I expect you will take it - is to savor and treasure the first one and pretend none of the others exist. Herbert's original novel was definitely one of the best things I've ever read. I read it literally forty years ago, and I still recall details from it sharply and think about it often. Unfortunately, the sequels gradually descend into a mess of mumbo-jumbo and near-incomprehensibility, IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reread it a few months ago, and it's great! It took me a hot second to get used to, but once I did, I flew through it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briar King Posted February 23, 2021 Report Share Posted February 23, 2021 Dune is fantastic as are the other 5 he wrote. I wouldn’t read any of the other books his son and KJA wrote except possibly the 2 books that “finish” the main story. They are the only 2 I read and I have no intention of trying others. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasimir he/him Posted February 23, 2021 Report Share Posted February 23, 2021 My ex introduced me to it, and I think I appreciate it more now that I'm older. 2 hours ago, Briar King said: Dune is fantastic as are the other 5 he wrote.

Agreed with Briar King - the other five are good, in my view, but Dune holds a special place in my heart, of the lot of them. I don't really bother with the Brian Herbert and KJA books but you do you: certainly, checking them out of the library hurts no-one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
