The newest from Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson.
You know, they had the six prequels and the two sequels...
Now they are inserting a novel in between Dune and Dune Messiah.
I've got to admit, this sort of bothers me more than their other books. Isn't one of the whole points in Frank Herbert leaving a big space in between Dune and Dune Messiah in having that big space being deliberate? So that #1, it gives Paul's enemies time to spin their webs and come up with credible and threatening plots against him and more importantly #2 - we leave Dune seeing Paul a hero and meet him again in Dune Messiah as an anti-hero? Someone who has first redeemed and then ruined his Fremen allies?
I dunno. Maybe it's just that if Frank Herbert thought that this part of the story important, wouldn't he have told it himself as part of either Dune or DM?
