Review "This vital link between the first two books of the Dune saga begins immediately after the close of Dune ...This is good reading.... Standing well enough on its own for Dune novices, it goes without saying that it''s must reading for established fans." --Booklist on Paul of Dune "Drawing on Frank Herbert''s massive body of notes, the coauthors of the new Dune series continue their expansion and illumination of the unexplored pieces of one of the genre''s most significant and powerful stories.
