Don't be fooled... Dune is only a blip in time in comparison to the entire story of Serena Butler and Norma Cenva which spans thousands of years... I heartily recommend reading *ALL* of the books, the twists and turns of the story are absolutely incredible and a true delight to read. Herbert was an amazing mind; his son Brian and co-writer Kevin J. Anderson do an excellent job of continuing his legacy by bringing body and closure to the greatest sci-fi concept ever created.
