  <default_description>On Arrakis, now called Rakis, known to legend as Dune, ten times ten centuries have passed.  The planet is becoming desert again.  The Lost Ones are returning home from the far reaches of space.  The great sandworms are dying, and the Bene Gesserit and the Bene Tleilax struggle to direct the future of Dune. The children of Dune's children awaken as from a dream, wielding the new power of a heresy called love.  &lt;P&gt;&quot;The spectacular new addition to 'The most magnificent achievement in SF history!'&quot;  (Baltimore Sun)</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[This was a good edition to the Dune series.  I actually liked it better than the first time I read the series.  I wanted to reread the series to include the new editions to the series by Kevin Herbert.  This book was better than Children of Dune and included much intrigue politics, and the affect th...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/46319743">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[HERETICS is by far my favorite of the DUNE Chronicles. As time jumps forward thousands of years again, we meet Miles Teg, a grizzled old soldier of the Bene Gesseritt. Teg has been charged with recovering a new ghola of Duncan Idaho, the first since the end of the last book. Through this ghola, the ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/14152201">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is a much needed improvement from the previous book in the series. It felt like more of a return to what I consider the idea of Dune - that sweeping space opera of plans within plans and cool ideas about the nature of humans and universe abounding. But the ending spoils it. There is an abrupt f...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/29640757">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[For me, this is the book in which Frank Herbert's Dune series begins to suffer from diminishing returns.  While set in the same imaginary future, this book recycles too many ideas and themes from the first four Dune books.  I have nothing against space adventures, but Herbert's writing style, which ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/61524963">more...</a>]]></body>
