«Мессия Дюны» для меня лично – дополнение к первой книге. Я не совсем разделяю скептицизм к ней, подобно многим другим читателям, рецензии которых прочитала. Да, для некоторых это продолжение будет большим разочарованием, но также многие найдут в нём горькую истину; эта часть ломает некоторые поданные идеи первого романа.

Epic.

If this is the worst Dune book, then maybe I need to read the first one yet again. So good. There are plot holes to poke at, and it gets a little too philosophical where less is more could have been more powerful, but the scale and creativity and storytelling is next to none. Unlike the first book in a couple of scenes, there aren't really any disgusting HBO-would-be-interested scenes in this one.

Dune Messiah is an unusual sequel in that it intentionally does not try to do things bigger than the original. In fact, this is a much more personal story about Paul coming to terms with the fallout of the last novel. Kudos on Frank Herbert for not following the normal cookie cutter tradition of a follow up, instead crafting a superb, literary deconstruction of the characters of the proceeding novel.
