I have read all of the Frank Hebert novels several times and adore them. Even God Emperor of Dune. I have never read any of the Brian novels because I hear they are such trash. But now 40 years after first reading Dune I am starting to question that decision. Should I?
Do it, its the only way you’ll know for sure if you like it. Personally, I explicitly like Dune and that is it. But hey theres a bunch of whacky shit in there at the end on Rakis.
