What if there was a science fiction novel so incredible in its depth and breadth that the author penned two more, making a trilogy and then added three more novels to that? And, what if after his death, his son and another well known writer added yet another twenty novels to the franchise, tracing history backwards And forwards thousands of years? You would end up with a complex universe that filled in all the gaps and more。 Some fans of the original trilogy would probably throw their hands up a What if there was a science fiction novel so incredible in its depth and breadth that the author penned two more, making a trilogy and then added three more novels to that? And, what if after his death, his son and another well known writer added yet another twenty novels to the franchise, tracing history backwards And forwards thousands of years? You would end up with a complex universe that filled in all the gaps and more。 Some fans of the original trilogy would probably throw their hands up and say only the original would do。 Others would say we are addicted so just give us more and more and more。 We want a never-ending supply of this stuff。The Caladan arc is a trilogy tracing the years immediately proceeding the events in the original novel Dune。 That’s what makes it fascinating for students of the Dune universe, but simultaneously awkward because perhaps not every question need be answered and not every background shaded in。 Particularly this novel in this arc is perhaps too close in time to the original Dune novel。Several of the characters here, Leto and Jessica, seem far too young and naive, to be suddenly the mature people in the Dune novel。 Don’t get me wrong。 It’s an enjoyable read and this reader wanted to know what happened and how things got resolved。 But, Leto’s flirtation with the rebels and Jessica’s concubine duties elsewhere simply were not necessary to lead into the events of Dune。 For that matter, all the little adventures of Paul, Duncan, and Gurney were unnecessary interludes。 Most of all, the explanation for granting the Atreides Arrakis was not necessarily more reasonable than the original hinted at explanations。Even given these critiques of what is essentially fan fiction, it was a worthwhile read for us Dune fanatics as are all the twenty bonus novels。 。。。more

Seriously? Have a day off。 This is becoming such a milking industry of the beloved Dune world your father created。 You simply can't fill the void he left behind。 Your prose is horrible compared to your father。 I've read the sequels to the original trilogy + the 3 follow ups by your father。 Your books don't do Dune justice。 Seriously?
