Thank you for the time and effort put in to create these works. It's muchly appreciated. To those saying "it's not the same as Dune" or "not the same as Frank's writing", I challenge any of you to put a novel together that comes even close to these series. Each writer is different. Each writer has their own voice. Frank Herbert's writing was not without fault. The plots and arcs in his son's novels are every bit as complex, well thought out and brilliant. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dune series is better because of the work of Herbert's son *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2020* Not only is this book great, but all of the prequels and sequels that were written by Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson are fantastic additions to the Dune Universe. I recommend them all. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ the benefit of reduced expectations *by A***D on Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2014* I had the benefit of reading many negative reviews trashing this before I decided to read it. My expectations were so low that I found myself enjoying the book more than I'd expected. To be clear, this book is not high literature. It's not nearly as deep or rich as any of Frank Herbert's Dune novels. Nevertheless, it provides a fun and even sometimes interesting backstory for Paul Atreides.The book has two interwoven parts, before and after the events of Dune. The chapters set before Dune are less interesting and resemble the more space opera aspects of Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson's Dune Prelude Trilogy. Also, there were quite a few pointless contradictions, most notably the fact that we see Paul traveling off Caladan before Dune took place (Frank Herbert's original novel clearly states Paul had never been off world).However, the scenes set AFTER Dune did hold my interest. I thought the authors actually did a decent job balancing the tyrannical aspects of Paul's reign with his inner emotional struggle. While not portrayed subtly, it's a fascinating dynamic. We also get further character development for Stilgar, Gurney, and Irulan. My favorite part was the subplot with Count Fenring. I was always intrigued by him in Dune and am glad to see his story finally resolved.Does this book really add much to your understanding of the Dune universe? Not really. Most of the important plot aspects are told or strongly implied in Dune Messiah. However, if you want to see more of Dune during the period after Dune and before Dune Messiah, those parts of the book at least hold some promise. Just go in with your expectations low and you might just get something out of the book. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/22513755-paul-of-dune-book-one-of-the-heroes-of-dune](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/22513755-paul-of-dune-book-one-of-the-heroes-of-dune) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
