"Another great book by Frank Herbert, worth reading as it takes place between the first trilogy of the series and the latter two that he wrote."

Harvey F Smith

"Frank Herbert had a fine mind. The Dune saga continues in this 4th in the series. Such a complex and imaginative world and characters!"

Jackie Davidson

"This was my favorite of the Dune Chronicles and I've read them all several times. I'm currently reading Dragon Age: Tevinter Nights which is a series of short stories set in the world of Thedas. This is also the setting of the Dragon Age video game series. I'm excitedly waiting for the fourth game - Dragon Age: Dreadwolf. The novels and short stories help satiate my need for more of this incredible world!"

"Frank Herberts fourth installment to the series builds off of the previous three books into an amazing story that pushes into the mysterious world of Dune. All of Franks previous dune books provided very philosophical views on life and the fourth book is just the same. "
