I have finished reading God Emperor of Dune. It ended exactly as it must, but I’m still not certain what to think of it. So far it’s my least favorite book, mostly because of the homophobia.
My recommendation is to probably stop at book 2 or 3.
But I shall forge ahead anyway.
Okay, I’m not yet certain it is worth it, but it feels like you can absolutely skip God Emperor of Dune and make sense of Heretics. You just have to know it’s thousands of years after Children, and it’s a new era.
And for some reason everyone is still obsessed with Jason Momoa.
PS: Improve your copies of Dune by crossing off Duncan Idaho and writing in Jason Momoa.
PPS I love how you can do that for lady Jessica and nothing changes.
@deinol I really dislike the DUNC casting of giant dude Momoa as slightly-above-average Human reference stick Duncan Idaho. Lynch's casting of second-banana from Logan's Run was perfect.
That's an important part of God-Emperor as Duncan falls further and further behind mainstream Humans, he's like a pet for the Fish Speakers by the end.

@deinol Messiah, Children and God Emperor were my least favourite. Heretics and Chapterhouse are very different books, but re-ignited my flame. Given the time-lapsed, it worked for me. I know many disagree. I do appreciate God Emperor for the gaming possibilities compared to the others.
I love Jason Momoa, but he is miscast. Every screen Duncan has been. Viewing the #Dune universe told through the eyes of Duncan is the gamer gold. Make all the PCS gholas and kill them regularly with impunity.
