À propos de cet audio

Heretics of Dune, the fifth installment in Frank Herbert's classic sci-fi series.

On Arrakis, now called Rakis, known to legend as Dune, 10 times 10 centuries have passed. The planet is becoming desert again. The Lost Ones are returning home from the far reaches of space. The great sandworms are dying, and the Bene Gesserit and the Bene Tleilax struggle to direct the future of Dune. The children of Dune's children awaken as from a dream, wielding the new power of a heresy called love.

Was a joy from start to finish. Narrator really made the story come alive. 10 out of 10

Fantastic book! Frank Herbert is a genius!

I really loved the whole First Dune Trilogy, with Children of Dune being the best for me subjectively! With God Emperor of Dune as a bridge book for the Second Dune Trilogy, it felt weird to read with all the Meta-Philosophical Discussions of God Emperor Leto II, there wasn’t as much action as we would have hoped! And I felt really frustrated to see how Frank Herbert succeeded to implement some Systematic Homophobia as well inside the book! And with all that in mind, I tried to not give myself hope for this Book 5 as well, but still have been deceived by this one being too much accentuated on the bragging of which religious group is the better at sex! I’m someone who deeply loves sex, but this one felt too much exaggerated! And the part (I will not spoil to whom it happens) when Frank Herbert decided to technically wrote a scene of some weird reverse pedophilia, I don’t even know how we would call a kid having sex with an adult by the kid own doing of this rape, instead of the adult, but it felt too much exaggerated and too much immoral and amoral to be set in that kind of book! In the overall, I still have enjoyed the book in its globality, but, it could have been written better, and cared well at the end instead of being rushed to be ended in the last chapters!

Too much sex bragging

... but somewhat complex. I had to listen to it twice to make sure I got every piece of narrative right. It obviously ties in directly with the next book Chapterhouse Dune witch I can't wait to get (but I have to; there's no way I'd pay 65$ for it).

Good story....

As usual, Herbert presents us with an excellent cast of interesting characters in unique settings and evolves the Dune universe in some fascinating ways.

However, this is the weakest Dune novel in my opinion. In so much of this book, things happen, but too seldom do those things seem to be in service of an advancing story. Stranger still, certain parts, most notably the ending, feel bizarrely rushed. There are several events that are off-handedly mentioned in a line or two that are crying out for entire chapters dedicated to them, especially frustrating considering the long-windedness of the story elsewhere.

Still, excellent interplay between characters in the most boldly changing sci-fi universe I know of make the book an entertaining read.

Not great, but good.

Thousands of years after the death of Leto the II the people from the scattering have returned.
This was a compelling story. I enjoyed Herbert’s telling of the plot. Immediately, I was drawn in and found myself totally engaged with the characters and story. Herbert also provides us insight into the Tleilaxu and the Bene Gesserit designs. I enjoyed following the characters he uses to tell the story and liked how he paced it. His world continues to be fascinating and intriguing. I encourage any fan to read/listen to this book.

I’m a big fan of the Dune series and this one didn’t disappoint. Also, excellent narration!

Loved it!

I'll say first that this is definitely not as bad as everyone seems to say it is. however, it is the least engaging of the series, BUT, it is definitely good. classic, political and social undertones that are undeniable throughout which, undoubtedly make this well worth reading. those that get bent out of shape with the sexual elements of the book need to get over yourselves and grow up. clearly many didn't understand what Herbert was going for with this, and yes, 'everything is about sex and sex is about power' if that makes you uncomfortable, you'll have a hard time getting through life.

Reviews I read complained about the story dragging as well as uninteresting characters but I found it the complete opposite. The previous 4 books seem like lore in this world and it’s refreshing to have almost a whole new story in the same spirit. 6/5!

Lovely
