Dune itself was already a couple decades old when I purchased a boxed set celebrating the release of Chapterhouse Dune in 1985. Reading them while in high school, there were many deeper themes in politics, religion, sociology, ecology, etc. that I couldn't grasp fully at the time but I truly loved the series anyhow. That is the power of Herbert's masterpiece opus. I've always wanted to revisit the series as an adult in order to pick up that which I missed as a kid and still retain that same love for his world building, action and intrigue. I did re-read Dune before Denis Villaneuv's movie was released. It went much faster than I had anticipated. This story never gets old. Thanks for the review! Looking forward to hearing what you think of the rest.
