Summary: It;s just not very good
Comment: I read the Dune novels as a teenager and recently started re-reading them 15 years later.

Dune Messiah is exactly as I remembered it: a disappointment not just in comparison to Dune, but a true mediocrity in its own right, with a surprising amount of fragements of thoughts and ruminations that just don't make any sense. The point of Dune Messiah, and Children of Dune, is to enjoy the much grand God-Emperor of Dune.

Rating: 5
Summary: a great follow up to the first!
Comment: this is the 2nd book in the Dune series written by Frank Herbert. and this book too i love. In this book Paul is now the ruler of Arakis and the freeman have set up a powerful and mighty kingdom in his honor after the jihad. Paul struggles with the consequences of the jihad and with what his people have become. and also paul begins to find the problems of possesion from the spice. all around a great addition to the dune series, and is definently worth buying. if you have read the first book you MUST READ this book, it is the continuing of what happened in Dune and begins to show the kind of changes physically it is taking and the peoples changes too.

Rating: 3
Summary: Good, but still second best.
Comment: I loved the first Dune book. It was an absolute masterpiece! But this second book was alright. It was a good book, but it didn't really grip you like the first book did. I kept waiting to be stunned by some unforeseen event at the beginning, but it never happened until the middle of the story. Overall, this was a good book that hopefully leads up to a great third book in Children of Dune. I hope that the third book can pick up some of the slack that was left behind.
