Frank Herbert

A very weird, and rather anti-climatic ending to the series.

The most pulpy of the dune novels, but still has its moments of greatness.

A radical, but ultimately successful break from the earlier setting of the series. Possibly the best book of the sequels.

Thought provoking and at times bewildering. Dune will never again reach the heights of the first book, but each sequel is nonetheless deserved of attention.

A very different book from its predecessor. Not as magnificent, but a read that rewards giving it your undivided attention.

Perhaps the greatest science fiction novel ever written.
