Product Description:
At the end of Frank Herbert's final novel, Chapterhouse: Dune, a ship carrying a crew of refugees escapes into the uncharted galaxy, fleeing from a terrifying, mysterious Enemy. The fugitives used genetic technology to revive key figures from Dune's past--including Paul Muad'Dib and Lady Jessica--to use their special talents to meet the challenges thrown at them.
Based directly on Frank Herbert's final outline, which lay hidden in two safe-deposit boxes for a decade, Sandworms of Dune will answer the urgent questions Dune fans have been debating for two decades: the origin of the Honored Matres, the tantalizing future of the planet Arrakis, the final revelation of the Kwisatz Haderach, and the resolution to the war between Man and Machine. This breathtaking new novel in Frank Herbert’s Dune series has enough surprises and plot twists to please even the most demanding reader.

Wow. This novel (along with Hunters) was simply awful, plagued by a childish writing style and uninteresting plot developments. I was very disappointed with this work.
Seaworms? Honestly? You mean to tell me that after thousands of years of experimentation in sandworm propagation, that a half-baked Tlielaxu was the first to think of such a thing? What was the point in doing this? the seaworm plotline was unnecessary for this tale, and does much to diminish the worm mythology.

Sandworms of Dune is a book by Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson. I am going to tell you now, it is just a stepping stone to the next series of books that these 2 have planned for the Dune Universe.
The 2 have created the gholas of all of the favorites Dune characters from the original series, and have done almost nothing with them in this book. This includes Paul, Lady Jessica, and Chani. I cannot imagine bringing these beloved characters back, and hardly using them at all.

Wow! I was not expecting such gripping story telling. I've read Brian and Kevin's Hunters of Dune and the House trilogy, the latter a memorable story, but I did not like the bite sized chapters (likewise in Anderson's excellent Saga of Seven Suns). Short chapters serve well to further the story, but are too short to really get into the drama. Consider Frank Herbert's Dune, the first book. The plot was intricate and dramatic, while each chapter was long enough to feel like I've been through a dramatic ... Read More

First -- they stretched one book over two. Bad move -- makes for a drawn out slow read. Second, it's just not that good.
There are a lot of opinions comparing Brian and Kevin to Frank Herbert. It's not fair -- Frank owned this material and he nailed it. Brian and Kevin are tackling someone else's work and, while I have enjoyed their other work, it does show through.
I would love to see the 'notes' and 'outlines' that are credited as being the base for building this book. I enjoyed ... Read More
