A review by laileanah
The Battle of Corrin by Brian Herbert, Kevin J. Anderson

adventurous challenging lighthearted mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

2023 Reread:
This wraps up the beginnings of the Dune Universe we're familiar with: Sword fighters of Ginaz, The Mentats/twisted Mentats, the Sisterhood, the Navigators, Holzman technologies,  the Fremen, the Sandriders on Dune, Crysknives, the creation of House Corrino, Suk doctors, etc.

Also, the original rift between House Atreides & House Harkonnen that led to the legendary feud that dominates the novel Dune. 

This is interesting if less well written than the later installments from Frank Herbert.

Original review:
A luke warm finale to a medium ok prequel trilogy.
