There’s a sense that things are coming full circle as the reborn Duncan is trained in the arts he once taught to young Paul Atreides. Duncan Idaho is still around, albeit in ghola form – and a child ghola at that. It’s a step in the right direction, granted, but a good book this is not.Īs with the previous book, Heretics of Dune introduces an entirely new cast, with one notable exception. We have characters! We have plot! Unfortunately, neither of these is enough to make up for how little I enjoyed this book. With this book, Frank Herbert has written a novel rather than an essay.
Heretics of Dune is an improvement on its predecessor for one simple reason. An enemy that finds its roots shockingly close to home. But now the ancient order of the Bene Gesserit face a new enemy who may throw all into chaos once more. Long after the death of the Tyrant Leto Atreides, the human race still follows his Golden Path.
