Dune messiah: "A holy war fought in space and on a thousand planets had made Paul Atreides the religious and political leader of the galaxy. The product of generations of controlled breeding, trained in the arcane disciplines by the Bene Gesserit sisterhood, he had more than human powers, including the ability to sense the shape of the future. Then the Bene Gesserit, unable to dominate the man they had made a god, set out to overthrow him. But Paul Atreides could foresee their plans and shape them to an unexpected and shocking goal..."--Dust jacket. Children of Dune: "When Paul Atreides mysteriously vanished, he left only his two young children as heirs to the coveted throne. Fortunately they had been endowed with superior intelligence and the memories of their ancestors, for each day brought them new dangers. When one was abducted, the other was forced to seek sanctuary in the scorching flatlands. There his mind began to swirl with thought-patterns from strange times and places, warning him of the terrifying perils awaiting Dune... giving him an improbable plan to save it... and predicting his destiny as ruler of the world. But were these messages real-- or the delusions of a mind deranged by heat, exhaustion and the addictive spice, Melange?"--Dust jacket.… (más)

Dune Messiah:
Paul Atreides' downfall. The Jihad has been conveniently all wrapped up and the bureaucracy is starting it's inevitable creep.
Paul has trapped himself by prescience and knowing the future destroys him.
He gives up, but I can't blame him.


Children of Dune:
Leto and Ghanima are the main characters. Alia takes the predetermined path of the preborn. Leto takes the path of vision instead of prescience and sets up humanity for the Golden Path, whatever that is.



Fantastic! Instead of a simple messianic action story like Dune, we get a full fledged galactic spanning empire intrigue underpinned by arguments of free will and what it means to be human.

There were lots of monologues and dialogues that Herbert threw in that bored me to tears, or went completely over my head, or appeared to delve into completely pointless ethereal world views,

BUT, it was great nonetheless! I feel like I can learn a lot of what is going on inside Herberts head, and I always like a psychological twist to my reads. ( )
