HOW SHOULD I READ THE DUNE SERIES? Greetings, friend. Looks like you're wondering how exactly you should tackle one of the most revered sci-fi series of all time. This guide should clear things up. OPTION 1: The Sampler You keep hearing about how great this 'Dune' thing is, you're vaguely aware David Lynch made a movie out of it. You've heard the Litany Against Fear. You're probably turned off by sci-fi, but you'll give this one a chance. Sequels generally suck anyways, right? Recommended for those who don't want shit to get too weird. 9UNE FRANK HERBERT OPTION 2: Muad Dib's Story So you ve just finished Dune and you enjoyed it. Or you at least like Paul as a character and you wanna see hou that plays out. Luckily Messiah exists, and it's damn short. Short enough that you can consider it a 'Book 4', an epilogue to the events of Dune. Read together, these two books make a fantastic, mostly-contained story. If you wanna stop, this is a great point. There's no telling whether you'll love or hate what comes next. Recommended for everyone who read Dune and knew they weren't in it for the long run. DUNTE FRANK HERBERT DUNE MESSIAH FRANK HERBERT OPTION 3: The Golden Path There is no reason to actually read Children of Dune unless you're gearing up for The Big One: God Emperor. Widely considered almost as good as Dune (and many would say even better, making it the true masterpiece of the series), anyone with a high tolerance for weird shit should go this route. You're not really going to understand what's going on, and that's okay. Just trust me, it's worth struggling through Children. It's important. It's not that good, but it's important. Recommended for EVERYONE who has enough time to waste to read four books of genre fiction. OUNE FRANK HERBERT DUNE MESSAL FRANK HERBERT CHILOREN OF DUNIE FRANK HERBERT OPTION 4: I Love Frank Herbert It's clear you're really into Dune at this point. You know the quality drops off fairly significantly after God Emperor, right? I mean, it's still written by Frank, so it's not too bad. Above-average. They aren't going to make you question the entire series' quality retroactively, or anything. But you're setting yourself up for disappointment if only because Chapterhouse ends on a pretty big cliffhanger, and Frank Herbert died before he could finish the next book. But you know that at this point, don't you? Recommended for those who like and respect Dune and are okay with loose ends. CHILDRAN OF CHAPTERHOUSE: DUNE FRANK HERBERT DUNE MESSIAH FRANK HERBERT DUNE DUNE FRANK HERBERT HERBERT RANI TERBER FRANK HERBERT OPTION 5: I Love Dune, But Clearly Don't Respect Frank Please, for the love of the God Emperor, don't do this. These are utter trash. Brian Herbert is raping his father's corpse every day by making money from this. They claim to be based off his notes, but they are fucking retarded and clearly nothing more than cheap cash grabs piggybacking off the Dune brand. Recommended for those who love Dune, but only because it has the word 'Dune' in the title. LETO OF MENTATS OF WITCHES OF DUNE DUNE DUNE DUNE DUNE DUNE DUNE DUNE DUNE DUINE CORRIN KEVIN J.
