Summary
Between the end of Frank Herbert's Dune and his next novel, Dune Messiah, lies a mystery: how a hero adored by a planet became a tyrant hated by a universe.
Paul of Dune begins the story of those 12 fateful years and the wars of the jihad of Paul Muad'Dib. It is an epic of battle and betrayal; of love and idealism; of ambition and intrigue. Above all, it is the story of how Paul Atreides - who achieved absolute power when scarcely more than a boy - changes from an idealist into a dictator who is the prisoner of the bureaucrats and fanatics who surround him.

Excellent
The story is brilliantly woven between two timelines to create a story that keeps you captivated from start to finish. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this and highly recommend it.

The Genius of Herbert and Anderson Continues
I was instantly enthralled by these master story tellers. Their origins stories weave together imperceptibly with the Dune universe created by Frank Herbert. This, like all the others stories was well written fast paced and enjoyable.

no depth, just exposition, repetition and recap
It's seriously boring, how can this be listened to after Dune 1, it's so bad, characters are uninteresting, no story depth, just stereotypes and sound bytes, it's embarrassing

Yet another book by the son making ALL people of colour seem like lesser humans...
The fathers genius has been lost by the sons attempt to equal his father inspirational books, a constant push to show the fremen as debased humans lacking intelligence over superstition even over common sense, I've read all his books its a common theme. This completely opposite of what his father conveyed which is theres something special and forthright about them, this exactly why people say Dune is another White saviour story over a dozen books telling you nothings is correct unless it comes from the quote on quote right side of the fence. he doesnt even try to be subtle with it it's clear to see the writing of 2 people influenced 2 diffrent times post 50-60s and the other post 9/11.

Just awful
I've read Dune multiple times and was looking forward to listening to this book as it fills the gap between Dune and Dune Messiah. It was a huge disappointment. Not sure why there are so many 5* reviews. These don’t seem to be honest. I rarely do it but I skipped parts of the book just to finish it. Very quickly you get bored with the unrealistic stores, basic conversations and no longer have any interest in the characters. This is the last book by Kevin J Anderson, Brian Herbert I’ve purchased.
