The first book in the prequel series to Dune. We get to see a young Leto Atreides and the events that shape him into the man he will become. It's a different style than Frank Herbert wrote, but it's a very good book.

This was the first book that Brian Herbert took on to try to carry on his father's legacy. In all honest, I was sceptical at first. However, getting a familiar character back (Duncan Idaho) was nice, and to get some early looks at the worlds that would come to play major roles in the original 6-book series was great!
Brian Herbert ability to keep the same feeling in his novel as were in the original novels was great! I felt like I was still reading the same seemless story that Frank Herbert began to weave all those years ago.

Excellent book by Frank Herbert's successor: his son. This begins the prequel series. Although it focuses on the Atreides, other history is included. Although well-written in its own right, it's flavor is slightly different from Frank's writing.
