Heretics of Dune, the fifth installment in Frank Herbert's classic sci-fi series.

On Arrakis, now called Rakis, known to legend as Dune, 10 times 10 centuries have passed. The planet is becoming desert again. The Lost Ones are returning home from the far reaches of space. The great sandworms are dying, and the Bene Gesserit and the Bene Tleilax struggle to direct the future of Dune. The children of Dune's children awaken as from a dream, wielding the new power of a heresy called love.

This dune book has some really good character setup, and it seems to be preparing for some cool stuff in later books. the later part of the book got really cool, but was marred with cringy sex content. not sure what the author is getting at here, but that could have been left out.

Okay dune book

I enjoyed this one for the really interesting characters and story that it brought felt more like it was going back to the original two Dune books as far as style and things which I enjoyed the weird sexual stuff he put in there though could have been left out it was unnecessary the ending as with most big epics felt a little weird and disjointed didn't seem to explain too much but all in all for a journey it was fun.

Felt like the earlier works

The last part of the book went so quickly it almost lost me. I’ll have to have another look at it to understand.
