The Corrino, Atreides, and Harkonnen books were okay, but the rest of them are awful, imo. I had to stop reading them because I did not like how they characterized some of the characters, for one thing.

Neither Brian Herbert or Kevin J. Anderson have the rich subtly that Frank Herbert had. Frank Herbert's later Dune books may be boring for some, but there was a depth to them.

I think Kevin J. Anderson's part in The Tales of the Jedi comics is his best work.

I really loved the House books, found the Butlerian Jihad trilogy (I can't remember the titles now) to be tolerable and I never even bothered picking up the rest of the books.

Frank Herbert was really subtle so you had to pay close attention or you'd miss a detail, which is why the books may be seem boring to others.

The other books are awful. I tried to read a couple of them, forget it. Maybe I'll check out the Butlerian Jihad trilogy. My favorite of their books was House Harkonnen. They made the Baron interesting.

Frank Herbert was really subtle so you had to pay close attention or you'd miss a detail, which is why the books may be seem boring to others.

I always had to stop and reread parts to fully understand what was going on. There's stuff in his books that helped form a lot of how I see things, which I see a lot these days.

I enjoyed House Harkonnen, the background makes a lot of sense since you get just thrown in to the world in Dune.

I liked their take on how everything was created, Bene Gesserit, the families, and spice.

Dune shaped a lot of my mind too, I used to have the Litany Against Fear memorized and would just recite it in my head as a way of calming down.
