And miss out on the amazing insanity of God Emperor? Nonsense. Make sure you read through God Emperor. You can skip the last 2 Frank wrote (they're still totally great imo) if the idea of sex combat...

I just finished the whole series (at least the novels Frank Herbert authored) and whoa... Kind of a slog there at the end but I really enjoyed it. Not sure I can jump right back into the dune...

That was so weird! I remember thinking how funny it was when the book describes how ripped he is before he gets the virus

They read like fan fiction and over-explain things that never needed more information (e.g. Baron Harkonnen is fat because of a virus he got while doing evil things, not just because he can't control...

Only one I've read by his son was Butlerian Jihad and thought it was really good.

If you do this I would read synopsis on messiah and children. Otherwise you might think Paul is the protagonist lol

Honestly, I'd say stop after the original Dune. The follow ups (Dune Messiah and Children of Dune) are really poorly written in comparison: in both novels, there are pages and pages of exhausting,...

They're Dune, so they're cool. They're the son, so they're pretty bad. It's like Dino DeLaurentis got Michael Bay to make prequels to the Lynch adaptation.

I finally slogged my way through the whole Dune series a few years ago. Before that I had only made through Children of Dune. I liked the series a lot better after I watched a bunch of explainer...

I won’t dissuade anyone from reading, but as a life long fan of Frank Herbert’s original work - his son’s novels are all awful. He fundamentally misses the nuances of what made his father’s work...

I really enjoyed this and the other books in this series. I read this when it came out in 1999-2000. Remember this was written 34 years after Dune came out in 1965. Don't expect Dune. The originals...

Just read Dune until the end of "Children of Dune." Stop there.

They’re really poorly written and are basically fan fiction. Their whole terminator AI nonsense has nothing to do with what Frank wrote.

I’ve not heard great things about them so I’ve personally avoided them.
