Reply #42: I never made it through chapterhouse... [View All]

I liked the others up to chapterhouse, though. Definitely agree about reading them in order. I think you would be totally lost otherwise... Unless you want to just rent and watch Scifi's Children of Dune miniseries. I thought both miniseries were very loyal to the books (Dune, Messiah, and Children), unlike the 1984 David Lynch version which took too many liberties. That way you get the backstory, without investing the time reading. Herbert was a fantastic writer, but the books are incredibly intricate and complex.
