I have read all of the Frank Hebert novels several times and adore them. Even God Emperor of Dune. I have never read any of the Brian novels because I hear they are such trash. But now 40 years after first reading Dune I am starting to question that decision. Should I?

If you want to read a morally grey white savior story with boring purple prose (I like purple prose!), nonsensical politics, and lazy orientalist worldbuilding go ahead

Oh also the incest

EDIT: oh lmao I thought you meant frank. no don't even consider the fanfictiony ones
