Very good. Made me feel sorry for some of the characters.

A great book focusing on the Harkonnen's history. Again, not a good introduction to the Dune series as a whole, but provides insight and backstory to the original series. A good addition to the Dune collection.

Really good.

Excellent book by Frank Herbert's successor: his son. This takes up where book one leaves off (House Atreides), focusing on the Harkonnens, still in the prequel period. Although well-written in its own right, it's flavor is slightly different from Frank's writing.

It's a good book, but it's no Dune. It provides a great background on the Baron, though.
