The over arching plot is very interesting but I feel it gets a bit lost in the technical language of Dune. Found myself confused at times

The play of politics on Dune is the subject which will serve to compel or fail to do so, in this episode of the Dune Chronicles. Herbert's interest in character development begins its slow decline, and readers may well find that the new cast of characters (or characters who, while nominally the same, are cast in entirely new roles) does not compel the way the first two books' personalities did. This is both the beginning of a new story and the conclusion to the old one. As such, it may be necessary (if, for some, painfully dull) reading, as a component to the story of the first generation of Atreides on Dune.

The development of leto and ghanima throughout this is so interesting and how it leads into god emperor is so great.
