Title: milking it!
Review: I am a dune Junkie, and having given this book 2 stars, I will still buy the next book.But this was really sad. Basically, the purpose of this book is to set the stage for the next two. And the purpose of these three (Other than the obvious financial reasons) is to give us the origins of all the mythology that the Frank Herbert created as a backdrop for his series.In and of itself this is fine, but the implementation is [not good]. The characters are shallow, the historical representations are unsophisticated and the emotional content is sophomoric.After about the first hundred pages, I read it out of some perverse desire to reach the conclusions promised in the opening chapter. But was denied even that.Get this book if you are a Dune fan, if not, don't waste your money
