Reviews
The saga continues to embroider the original works with intelligence and imagination and also a stronger role for women. - Booklist on Mentats of Dune "The magic lingers, even when the final chapters have already been written." - Kirkus Reviews on Mentats of Dune "[A] fun blend of space opera and dynastic soap opera... . The narrative is broken into short, jazzy chapters studded with familiar names like Atreides, Harkonnen, and Arrakis that will grab the attention of longtime Dune fans." - Publishers Weekly on Sisterhood of Dune
