Sandworms of Dune
Disappointing. At least a a piece of literature. If I hadn’t read most of it during 14 hours of plane flight and it wasn’t theoretically the culmination of something like 10,000 pages of the Dune stories I would have just thrown the thing away. It was boring, meandering, and, probably most damning, relied on a heaping helping of deus ex machina to tie it all together in the end. The kernel of something cool was there, which is probably what kept me going, but it was my least favorite of all of the Herbert/Anderson novels. considering this is the culmination of the entire Dune experiences that’s a hearty bummer.
Oh well.
