The plot is pretty solid in this one. Shadam is kinda an asshole. I’m really not surprised as to why he hated Leto. Did they fucking retcon Pieter de Vires?! Like wtf was that? But the book wasn’t terrible. Not great. But not terrible. The Harkonnens are just, comically evil. I’m not a huge fan of the structure of the books. I’m not fan of how “zoomed out” everything is, there were so many instances where if it was more fleshed out and detailed it would’ve been way cooler. But overall it was an interesting trilogy.
