About this listen
Fleeing from the monstrous Honored Matres - dark counterparts of the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood - Duncan Idaho, the military genius Bashar Miles Teg, a woman named Sheeana who can talk to sandworms, and a group of desperate refugees explore the boundaries of the universe. Aboard their sophisticated no-ship, they have used long-stored cells to resurrect heroes and villains from the past, including Paul Muad'Dib, in preparation for a final confrontation with a mysterious outside Enemy so great it can destroy even the terrible Honored Matres. And, deep in the hold of their giant ship, the refugees carry the last surviving sandworms from devastated Arrakis, as they search the universe for a new Dune.

Great story

As I had read Chapter House and had not enjoyed the story line as too convoluted
A new start

A rollercoaster ride

After that, I found it quite engaging. It’s less about ideas than Frank Herbert’s classic Dune novels books and more about telling an interesting story.
In spite of the iffy start, I recommend this.

I’m a huge fan of the dune universe, and this book is a worthy sequel to Frank Herberts fantastic series.
Wonderful!

A lot of women fighting viciously

It was quite different to Frank’s style, however, in some ways I preferred it. I found the riddle-like philosophy in Frank’s novels a little laborious and confusing. There is none of this in Hunters. There also seemed to be more action and a faster pace.
So, a different experience to books 1-6 but one that I thoroughly enjoyed. I’m very happy to see this story concluded.
Now, on to Sandworms…
Glad I read it

It's worth taking a break following Chapterhouse to consume the other books by the new authors prior to starting this. So many fantastic subtle pointers in the text and the performance.
While not a Frank Herbert tale this more than stands up. This flows like someone explaining another's psychedelic dream; axiolatal spice instead of the spice of the divided God.
Heading into the grand finale

Is it as good as the first 6? no. Is it bad ? No it’s pretty good, if you lost your mind at the end of chapter house (like myself) and want to find out how it ends here is your chance.
As good as it could of been
