"I enjoyed all the Dune books except Butlerian Jihad. The "House" trio were top notch but Butlerian Jihad seemed rushed and badly thought out."
I am reading it to get the back story
and it is interesting to try to guess which characters are the actual pre cursers
for main schools of major influence.
Being Muslim it is interesting to see how
much of the themes from "Dune" are so blatantly borrowed from Islamic practice with only minor name changes.
I think I will read "Dune" itself next but with a much better perspective on the Corrino's and Harkonnens.
Cheers
