From Publishers Weekly

Longtime collaborators Herbert and Anderson set themselves a steep challenge—and, in the end, fail to meet it—in this much anticipated wrapup of the original Dune cycle (after 2006's Hunters of Dune). A large cast scattered across the cosmos must be brought together so that the final, all-powerful Kwisatz Haderach may be revealed in the ultimate face-off between humankind and the machine empire ruled by the implacable Omnius. Though pacing is brisk and the infrequent action scenes crackle with tension, only two minor characters—gholas, who are young clones with restored memories, of Suk doctor Wellington Yueh and God-Emperor Leto II—acquire real depth. Everyone else is too busy reacting to mostly irrelevant subplots like sabotage aboard the no-ship Ithaca, a plague devastating the planet of Chapterhouse and the genetic engineering of marine-dwelling sandworms. The lengthy climax relies on at least four consecutive deus ex machina bailouts, eventually devolving into sheer fairy tale optimism. Series fans will argue the novel's merits for years; others will be underwhelmed. (Aug.)

From AudioFile

There were multiple layers of loose ends to tie together throughout this book, the final installment of the Dune Chronicles, which was written from the notes of the late Frank Herbert. Fans and critics will debate its effectiveness, its truthfulness to the Dune mythology, and its rightful place in the genre, but no one will suggest using this book as an entrée into the series. There's simply too much that has come before. For veterans of the series, Scott Brick returns and presents a steady narration. He relies on a library of familiar characters and takes the narrative passages in stride, staying fresh and maintaining interest to the end of the lengthy story.

2.0étoiles sur 5 Dissapointing, Aoû 19 2007
Par David M. Nataf - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Sandworms of Dune (Hardcover)
I was really dissapointed with this book. The Hunters of Dune wasn't too bad, I thought. There was some good action, good intrigue and development. And sandworms of dune started decently well. What was wrong with it is how they tied up the loose ends and pieces at the end. I won't spoil, but I'll say that the rhythm was ridiculous. Everything is slow through the first 800 pages of Dune 7 and 8, and then in the last 200 pages everything clears up, a lot of it in a very nonsensical manner. I realize these are not the original author, but it was still dissapointing. For example, I certainly thought they did a better job in the Battle of Corrin.

2.0étoiles sur 5 Horrible finish to a great series, Sep 9 2007
This review is from: Sandworms of Dune (Hardcover)
Unfortunately it's very clear that Frank Herbert's son doesn't have half the skill his father did. The final book in the Dune series leaves me wishing I had not read it. The ending of this book contradicts of lot of what was written in the first 6 books. The conclusion felt extremely rushed and very immature. The last 200 pages of the book basically throw out everything written in the first part of the book and the reader is left feeling like there was little point to the first half of the book. The character development is very weak and many of the characters behave completely opposite to how they were developed over the last several books in the series. In the end, the entire conclusion became completely unbelievable.

I give this book 2 stars for simply providing an idea of what Frank Herbert's intentions were to finish the series. I wish I had been allowed to read his raw notes rather than having to go through this book, I probably would have found it more enjoyable.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Finally, a true osmose of both Herbert, Déc 30 2007
Par Serge Page "SF, Polar et Photo" (Montréal, Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Sandworms of Dune (Hardcover)
Compare to the original Frank Herbert's books of the Dune saga, the prequel books written by Anderson & Brian Herbert (the Houses saga) definitely presented a strong asset and a deep flaw: they brought detailed information to the events preluding the Dune saga and made us understand all the references to past people and events made in the original Dune books.That is the asset.

But they suffered from a very bad sickness: they did not convey, neither in the writing style nor in the general atmosphere of the books, the fever carried by the Dune books and the high-end minimalist style of writing Frank Herbert as gotten us used to.

No such things with the Sandworms of Dune. This is the first book by B Herbert and Anderson that I almost felt it had been written by Frank Herbert. All the ingredients that made the Dune books the best SF fiction ever written are present, from the style of writing, the interlaced plots, etc.

Fortunately, it fits in the original saga perfectly. A real jewel of a finish... and an interesting finale development!
