Frank Herbert
The desert planet Arrakis, called Dune, has been destroyed. Now, the Bene Gesserit, heirs to Dune's power, have colonized a green world—and are tuning it into a desert, mile by scorched mile.
Chapterhouse Dune is the last book Frank Herbert wrote before his death: A stunning climax to the epic Dune legend that will live on forever.

Critic reviews
“Even if you've already read the entire series (or heard another version), the great production and voice work in this release makes it worth the time spent listening. Like me, you'll probably gain some additional insights after hearing Macmillan Audio's rendition of this classic.” —SF Site
“...the talented cast--Euan Morton, Katherine Kellgren, Scott Brick and Simon Vance--do yeoman's labor. Each reads from a different point of view, a move that could easily be confusing but for the superb direction.” —Publishers Weekly
“This science-fiction novel works exceptionally well as a full-cast recording…Simon Vance helps listeners conjure vivid mind pictures from Herbert's poetic descriptions.” —AudioFile
“Euan Morton, Katherine Kellgren, Scott Brick and Simon Vance do an excellent job of distinguishing the wide variety of male and female characters involved in this episode... [I] recommend that other Dune fans try the audiobooks.” —Bookloons.com
I often find myself skipping forward just because I can bear to listen to a particular narrator any longer.
On top of that, no one has bothered to get the different narrators to be consistent with pronunciation of names which is very irritating.

Good performance, although the different pronunciations of words and names by the different actors is EXTREMELY distracting

The story and sub plots are engaging and the characters interesting.
Ultimately there is an age old struggle between good and evil. The book ends with questions hanging in the air, and had the author lived there was scope for more. However, I can live with the ending, imagine the possible outcomes and didn't feel dissatisfied or cheated as I sometimes do. Get it, but listen to the series first.
Brilliant
