Fleeing from the monstrous Honored Matres - dark counterparts of the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood - Duncan Idaho, the military genius Bashar Miles Teg, a woman named Sheeana who can talk to sandworms, and a group of desperate refugees explore the boundaries of the universe. Aboard their sophisticated no-ship, they have used long-stored cells to resurrect heroes and villains from the past, including Paul Muad'Dib, in preparation for a final confrontation with a mysterious outside Enemy so great it can destroy even the terrible Honored Matres. And, deep in the hold of their giant ship, the refugees carry the last surviving sandworms from devastated Arrakis, as they search the universe for a new Dune.

It’s obvious Frank Herbert is no longer writing these, but his son and Kevin Anderson do a great job at getting it wrapped up and ready for the finale.
Is it as good as the first 6? no. Is it bad ? No it’s pretty good, if you lost your mind at the end of chapter house (like myself) and want to find out how it ends here is your chance.

As good as it could of been

Not as good as the original but a cracking effort joins the dots a bit

A lot of women fighting viciously

Well worth a listen tidies up lots of lose ends. Must read the butlerian jihad books first though

Great story

I was dubious about continuing the series after finishing novels 1-6. I’m very happy that I decided to read this and I’m excited to read the rest of Brian and Kevin’s sizeable contribution to the Dune universe.

It was quite different to Frank’s style, however, in some ways I preferred it. I found the riddle-like philosophy in Frank’s novels a little laborious and confusing. There is none of this in Hunters. There also seemed to be more action and a faster pace.

So, a different experience to books 1-6 but one that I thoroughly enjoyed. I’m very happy to see this story concluded.

Now, on to Sandworms…

Glad I read it

To begin with, I wasn’t keen on this book, as the first part of this book spends a lot of time recapping the earlier stories, which, if you’ve made it this far, serves no purpose.

After that, I found it quite engaging. It’s less about ideas than Frank Herbert’s classic Dune novels books and more about telling an interesting story.

In spite of the iffy start, I recommend this.
