Our view
“Dune: House Corrino” is a brisk, readable finale to the “Prelude to Dune” trilogy, set in the years before Frank Herbert’s “Dune”. Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson built it from notes Frank Herbert left behind, across nearly seven hundred pages. Some readers enjoy the pace yet miss the depth of the original novels. Fans who want more of this universe before its most famous story have plenty to explore.
