God Emperor is the 2nd best Dune book, so read it at least once.

God emperor is amazing. The vision! I can't remember if it's Heretics or Chapterhouse when Miles Teg gets accelerated...

I like the first three for the continuity of the Atreides story. But I love the latter three for the depth. I re-read them several times each.

A pity Dune 7 never came out. And then the Brian Herbert pulp...

It would have been good to get a Dune 7, because the more the better of course. But if there was a Dune 7, it would not have closed all the ends; if something comes to a complete finish, it means it's dead. As long as life goes on, there are always new things.

And about the Brian-Herbert-and-Kevin-Anderson things; I once found a comment on them which I really liked: "Pass on them. As in pass waste. Defecate."
