Bought this book as a part of my annual Dune-fix. With the previous two novels Paul of Dune & The winds of Dune I recovered some of my dissapointment that were the sequels to Frank Herberts Chapterhouse of Dune (based upon a 30 page synopsis named Dune 7 left by Frank).
Now the Sisterhood is actually a step back to the early days of the Duneiverse but after the first trilogy as written by Brian & Kevin. Those books did contain some excellent moments. SoD actually is the start of a trilogy in whic ...more

Let me make it clear from the start, I'm a fan of the original Dune series but I'm also a fan of the books by Kevin J Anderson and Brian Herbert, since House Atreides is the book that got me hooked on the Dune series.
I picked up Sisterhood of Dune straight off finishing The Battle of Corrin, since I am re-reading all the books with a friend. Sisterhood of Dune was a completely new read to me, and I'm glad I included it in my re-read.

None of the books written by Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson will compare to the Frank Herbert books, but they are good filler.
Although not in the same league of the original books, still a nice book for the fans of the saga.
Starts slow but really pick up around the middle. One of the better post-Frank Herbert books so far as it provides some background on the split in the Sisterhood that created the primary Bene Gesserit and Honored Matres faction. Also more info on the life of Vorian Atreides post Jihad. None of the Frank Herbert depth but compelling history for Dune freaks like myself.
Not so bad as Paul of Dune. Not as good as Butlerian Jihad. I think future of this trilogy will include Spacing Guild and Mentat School.
