Can I just comment on how brilliant Frank Herbert is to have come up with all those philosophical aphorisms before every chapter. It is really effing hard to do. Genius.
I really liked the first half, but it got a bit boring somehow in the second half. Most books had thst for me somehow... Especially children of dune. Maybe if i re read those books again. Started chapterhouse dune now, and then the 2 final brian herbert books as well.
Your reading of the series is exquisite. It is no exaggeration to say that when I imagine Dune as a story your voice is literally the one inside my head. You have immersed me in the Dune universe.
I agree that he has a good voice for reading, but his vocal inflections sometimes miss the mark. This is a very minor thing. He has pauses in...awkward places when reading direct verbiage from the novels. Most of the time it is spot on, but when he misses, it jars me. I am maybe hyper-critical; I am an English teacher at the high school level, and have a definite idea of how these should be read. A- for these videos.
I love that scene in Tabr when Odrade reads the message from Leto, gave me serious chills when I first read it. The highlight of the book for me, like after the events of God Emperor his fingerprints are still there to help humanity
It's doubly insane because IIRC the Bene Gesserit at this point are all supposed to have Siona blood and be immune to prescience (which is why Duncan can't leave the no-ship; some of his cells lack the marker). How the hell does Leto know as much as he does?
Waff is one of my favorite "tragic" characters. The Tleilaxu always seemed like they have a handle on things, and Waff is basically always going around, strutting his stuff. But in every single encounter with the Bene Gesserit, he's shown to be nowhere near as clever as them.
The Bene Tleilax are formidable, it took thousands of years for the Bene Gesserit to crack their code and manipulate them. But they did. They always do.
@@vincentgodin-filion9942 I agree. When their inner religion was uncovered, Waff and the Tleilaxu through him, were manipulated finally to a degree that earns the original comment here. Waff and the Tleilaxu did however remain to be treated as a truly dangerous unknown and even under complete absolute surveillance, the capsule of DNA that Waff had in his upper chest/throat was still undiscovered and left to the unknown futures of Frank herberts Dune novels, in a completely unknown area of space, concealed still, within the no-ship stolen by Duncan Idaho.
IOIAF got me to read the whole series. The animations for the ultimate guides are so helpful for getting people into reading who normally prefer visual medium.
I've been re-reading all the books because I've only read the sequels once. It's crazy how much better they are the second time around. I'm currently on Heretics and I can't believe how much I love it because I thought it was only okay the first time. You pick up so much of the nuance within the characters, story, and mythology on that second read. This later era in the story is fascinating with the mystery surrounding the scattering. I can already feel how much I'm going to be wishing that Frank Herbert would've been able to write that final book. I love these new characters and I'm going to be a mess all over again when I finish Chapterhouse.
Dune really is the best Sci Fi series out there. I personally stopped after God Emperor because I thought I got every I needed out of the book series, obviously I thought wrong.
After a few readings, the last 2 became my favorite. Herbert had a plan for this arc, and as a result the story really moves in a way the earlier books didn't, but always felt like a logical extension of the earlier works.
Of course they are a logical extension. When you read them the first time, the change in God emperor is quite shocking, after three books in the company of the same characters more or least. Paul, the lady Jessica, Alia, Stilgar, the baron, Gurney, Duncan... Okay, Duncan is not the best example. I am one of those who think that the change of the Duneverse in the second trilogy was for the better.
This entire series is just absolutely incredible - Dune has always been criminally underappreciated, imho... it really is the Lord of the Rings of science fiction, in terms of sheer scale, scope and detail - there have, of course, been other incredibly expansive sci-fi series since then, but Dune was arguably among the first (Asimov's 'Foundation' universe is the only rival from around that time - much as I love Foundation, though, I personally prefer Dune). One thing I lover about the Dune universe is how the lack of advanced computer tech is a key plot point throughout the series. That world-building choice Herbert made when developing the lore was a actually a very risky position for science fiction, particularly at the time - while Asimov's novels and the Star Trek series espoused the advancement and development of computer tech, which was still very new at the time, Herbert all but threw that convention out completely, opting instead to have deprive his fictional societies of the kind of tech we all take for granted every day, forcing them to refocus their energy toward advancing human skills and traits to near-superhuman levels. And the scarcity of the means to participate in this form of advancement regresses humanity to a neo-feudal age more reminiscent of medieval societies. When you really analyze this series' universe, you start to grasp how unconventionally risky and outside the box Dune truly was when it first debuted. Nobody had ever seen anything quite like it. I would argue that still nothing quite lives up to the outright sense of wonder and vastness that those first 6 novels projects...
The Last hundred pages elevated this book for me, putting it on par with the first. “GED” is still the most mind opening philosophical SF work, surpassing heinlein’s “Stranger In A Strange Land”. I have gone back and re read the first four books in anticipation of the film, and to see how much I have changed since reading them as a angry rebel youth. Age brings wisdom and an understanding of life that is not attainable as an angry rebel youth. But, youth is action and has the ability to change.
I was first introduced to Dune as a kid with the old real time strategy games and the movie, before eventually reading the first four books in high school. Your series has made me want to dive back into the books I've already read with new purpose, and finally read the several that I missed. Thank you for this series, your love and dedication to this universe is apparent to all friend.
@@lennysmileyface I actually am juuuuust old enough to remember Dune II, which was then remade into Dune 2000. Both are awesome though, although it definitely confused me when I got into the books and the Ordos were mysteriously not a major third party lol
@@robertroy7818 I would venture to guess that House Ordos in-game is basically derived from the Ixians. Although that is weird considering House Atreides and Harkonnen are in there, meaning they must have had the license to use the established houses.
These videos are so well done. Whenever I get stuck in a Dune novel, I use these videos to help me get excited to resume reading. I never would have made it through God Emperor without your videos!
This series is such a valuable experience. Every Time I read or watch something Herbert I realize something new. thank you for helping me bridge my neurons.
Having read the Dune saga books 30~ years ago, I have always enjoyed the scope and power of the story. Having older eyes now, long reading is less comfortable, so I really enjoyed this abbreviated re-telling, allowing me to relive the highlights of the saga. These videos are very well done and the narrator is very mesmerizing! I guess the Chapter House edition of this series hasn't been produced yet, so I eagerly await to its arrival to continue enjoying this series.
Ditto. The music and narration are really top notch. I love this channel. I read these books over 15 years ago and now I can't wait to read the Brian Herbert books (I know they won't be as good but I've so enjoyed reliving the books through these videos)
Ich glaub's nicht, this is like watching a Dune-movie of our dreams, that will never be made for real. Your mastery of telling/re-telling the Dune books has reached such heights. As I've said: unbelievable. But here it is! Thanks.
I've been waiting for your Heretics guide! Thanks so much. I love your sense of theatricality. It really brings the Dune content to life. I just reread Heretics, so this is a rather sweet dessert following a hefty full-course meal. God, I wish I could write like Frank Herbert. The guy was a philosopher in disguise, I swear. I'm an amateur novelist myself, so this is like heaven for me! Thanks again.
Mannnnn I binged the hell out of your videos. I saw the recent Dune movie and was immediately hooked. Then I watched it a second and third time. This was when I started to really wonder about the universe of Dune and began to drive into the lore. Then boom here comes your channel. Thank you so much. Dune is dope af and you my guy have taken my interest of this wonderful creation to deep levels. Now I'm heading to the library to get the books. Thanks homie for all of these videos and the passion that went into them. You have done a wonderful job and I appreciate you.
Really awesome job as always. This third arc withing the Dune universe is still my favourite, too bad Herbert died before finishing it ! We did got the decaf contradictory version of his son, too bad I didn't really liked it. The next book is my personal favourite in the Dune series and too often overlooked. Please take as much time as you need to complete this awesome full recap of my beloved series !
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! The work you put into this would make FH so proud! You do a real service to us "Dune Heads". This is really helping me digest the book, I'm currently reading and then watching this up until the point that I am and it's really shedding so much light on the mysticism! Long live the Sisterhood and may they survive and stop all this in-fighting!
Thanks, that was nicely done. I'll share with you my favorite little bit of this truly great book. I realize you couldn't include it here, for obvious reasons of brevity and directness, of course. It's when Odrade is waiting for Sheanna to arrive at the Keep. Odrade looks out a window & down at the Plaza of Keen. She sees a group of men begin dancing a long, intricate dance - naked. A lot of things happen at once, but the main thing is her watching the dancers. Right at the end, when everything erupts in chaos, Sheanna arrives and walks up to Odrade. Something Sheanna says suddenly crystallizes Odrade's understanding, and she realizes the dance, the crowd, the chaos - all are part of the same thing: a language. The last sentence of the last paragraph of that section states that 'it had arisen the same way all languages had: *_out of necessity._* Herbert was bitingly insightful, and everything that happened in the Dune books happened for a reason. There was never a parade or a fight just to break up the monotony, or to fill out some pages. No 'pomp & circumstance.' Everything had a purpose. He also had this amazing ability to take normal aphorisms and turn them upside down; to turn the tables on expected wisdom. An example would be the line, "Those who would repeat the past, must control the teaching of history." It's like taking some weird corollary of a normal rule, and somehow showing *_that's the real truth._* He stripped the romanticism from such things, and laid bare human motivations. He was a master of *_both_* cutting directness *_and_* obfuscation. He could use technical jargon well enough to make your head spin - and he understood what he was saying. It wasn't just techno-babble! For Destination: Void, he actually used real ideas from computer programming. When a new edition came out, he went back and made changes to his own 'techno-babble' sounding (to me, anyway!) passages - to reflect the latest ideas in programming! Wow. That's all I can say. Wow. tavi.
Amo ese capitulo!! Yo lo tome más del lago de que el baile representa comunicación, un portal imaginario en el que el presente y el pasado se conectan, reflejando juntos un presente grotesco como solo puede hacer ese baile.
I am only familiar with the movie. I was a teenager the first time I saw it. I am now a senior citizen, listening to your series, I have ordered the series to read. I love your voice. Very relaxing. Keep up the great work 👍 👏.
You actually got my wife interested in Dune, both the story and the relationship between the author and current events. We met in 1988.. finally married in 2015. Back then she thought I was strange, and now she’s began to understand the worlds I began to explore over 20 years ago. Thank you, my friend. (Do you think you might make a video about the ‘lost 7th novel?. Maybe using the authors notes as they did with Fitzgerald’s ‘Last Tycoon’?)
No one but Brian Herbert has that info and he refuses to show the real notes. Nepotism at its works, sadly, and he squandered the potential of an extended universe with him and KJA's awful ideas
I read the first dune book when I was around 14 years old. I had completely forgotten about it till i bumped into these videos then it all came back to me. This channel rekindled my love for the series.
I don't know if you'll ever read this, but just wanted to say that I love your channel! I don't think I would have ever had it in me to read Dune, but this has been an amazing way to learn about this incredible story. Listening to thousands of years of history has me seeing with new eyes. Thanks Quinn! You're awesome!
Revisiting these after listening to Last Podcast On the Lefts Dune Podcast...while i appreciate the humor and love that they will hopefully open this series to whole new audiences, Quinn really tackles these books and themes with the intellectual maturity they deserve. I would say LPNs are the School House Rock of Dune, while Quinn is attending a course at University with a very passionate and knowledgeable professor. Well done.
after stumbling upon your channel and binging your Ultimate Guide to Dune these past 2 days..I'll be delighted to actually read it for myself in the near future. Regardless, I'm grateful for your loving and skillful craft of storytelling and voice work. Stupendous, thanks for being here. Can't wait to keep exploring your channel and-- with this renewed taste for audiobooks-- finally tap back into avidly reading, as I've done all life before. much love!
I AM a heretic of Dune. Because I love the Heretics of Dune and Chapterhouse Dune so much more than the first two books. The trials and tribulations of the Sisterhood were of unbelievable fascination for me. If I could choose to live a lifetime in the Dune universe, it would be as a Bene Geserit Reverend Mother
I've been looking forward to this one in particular. I like GEoD more than most people, but I also greatly enjoy how Heretics and Chapterhouse recalibrate the Dune universe and expand it beyond Arrakis/Rakis to other worlds and other universes.
Heretics is my favourite of the series so far. Call me a heretic (heh heh heh) but I found God Emperor to be kind of a slog. Every time Leto II started off on yet another sermon, all I could do was roll my eyes and say "stfu Worm Man." But here comes Heretics, in which Sheeana says something to the effect of "finally some frickin excitement!!" I could not agree more. Given the themes of God Emperor and how he purposely enforced a monotonous peace that would lead to the Scattering, I can't help but wonder if this Boring Slog to Frickin' Excitement tone change was by design. If so--well-played, Mr. Herbert. Well played.
You will get to be like him, more or least, of course. Sheeana is my favorite and I think that if I were in her place, I would have taken exactly the same decisions. Don't know why but I already feel very similar to her, and I think that the people who know me feel the same. So I trust you, although I do not know you.
wow.... i've read heretics about five times (some of the others more over the past 35+ years), but you're highlighting scenes i've somehow missed and their significance. thanks!
This is lightyears better than any audiobook I could find for Dune online. I've been listening to your series while working, and I don't know what to do now that you've finished! You should definitely consider narrating audiobooks. Fantastic voice acting and atmosphere.
Again i say, i do not understand how people thing these last 3 books couldnt be adapted to film... seriously this story is amazing, it would make a great movie/show..
Although I still prefer Heretics to God Emp. (because it prefers plot to pontification), I now consider it-- having just re-read it-- a bit of "throw everything at the wall and see what sticks." Solid summary on your part.
I catch alot of flack when I tell ppl that "Heretics" is one of my all-time favorites. Its a very intriguing story and so much more lore packed into 1 tome.
It is a good book. Though I did have a little trouble at times telling the one Bene Gesserit from the other, partly because I took a long time reading the book. Leto's message to the Sisterhood was so strong.
Thank you so much for this! I read all the books years ago and had forgotten all the subtle nuances of Frank Herbert's writing. Keep up the great work!
Odrade should get more videos about her Edit: Seriously though I'd love to see more videos centered on aspects from Heretics and Chapterhouse. And characters like Odrade, Lucilla, Taraza, Murbella, and Sheeana are my bread and butter... also Teg he's everyone's favorite
I first read the Dune series when I was in middle school, and they legitimately changed my life. I've read them a few times since, picking up things I missed the first time. I really appreciate you doing this series of videos, for helping rekindle the love for this series I had.
I couldn't finish Hertics. I lost the passion for Dune sometime while reading it. I might get back to it one day, but I appreciate that you are doing this Ultimate Guide to it. Thanks.
Really, really, really well produced. your channel is a boon. On the subject it self: although God Emperor and original Dune remain my favourites, Heretics is right behind them. You can't shake off the feeling of imminent doom, of powerful and frankly, self-absorbed women (and men) slowly losing control while they still cling to their own grandiosity.
I just finished Heretics of Dune for the first time. The axlotl tanks give me goosebumps. I can't imagine being that Duncan ghola and I wonder if Super Teg can eat more than Goku?
Great narration. I had to listen after hearing the audio book to tie up things I missed. I really enjoyed this book and the story of the BG. I do think the plot twists ended up leaving some plot holes. And Super Saiyan Teg was by far my favorite
Heretics of Dune is a good book, however, the God Emperor is my favorite and Chapterhouse is guess my second most favorite book of the series. Great video. I like your voice.
Good choice. Heretics is my favourite, and Sheeana is my favourite carácter of the entire series. God Emperor of Dune is my second. His voice is great, I especially love how he plays Waff.
The tyrant worm had hyperprescience since his childhood. He lived more than 3 millennia and possessed all the knowledge of the universe. On top of that, nobody else could understand the fucking Golden Path. You know, he could spend centuries playing philosophizing with himself. Anyway, my least favorite is Messiah. I agree with you, Hunters might make a good movie. IMO the book is OK if we ignore the end. When I read it, I found very interesting epic and grotesque scenes. And of course, my dear Sheeana always awesome.
I dare not say that any book of the Dune series is bad, but in my view Messiah is the worse. I found the conspiracy very predictable and the end too tragic. Also I did not believe that Alia forgave Irulan. After poisoning someone you decide to take care of her children... It does not make any sense to me.
Quinn, I've been a reader since a very young age. I grew up in am unconventional family of progressive greatest generationers and liberal hippie parents. My father gave me Tolkien when I was six, and I of course started with the hobbit. I did eventually get a Nintendo and other gaming systems but television and gaming were a treat. My grandmother taught me to print in cursive, Pittman shorthand and pristinely so. This was in a very old portion of the US, the north shore of Boston as it's called. I spent summers in wildlife camps and accelerated academic programs. I read the classics because I was encouraged but also as much because I desired to do so. I've read thr complete works of Tolkien, Lewis, the Greeks, Marcus Aurelius, the bible, qu'ran and torah [abrahamic] I read Rowling along with Steimneck and Rand, Tolstoy, The good doctor "Gonzo: Thompson and James Frey, David Sedaris, Billy Shakes and I only elaborate such because these are the foundations of oral tradition, our genetic memory and there is very little new under the sun, at least not since the inception of the abrahamic religions. I had a mentor who's since passed that prostelized the lofty accomplishments of Frano Herbert's Dune. I can say without apprehension that Asimov and Herbert like Heironomys Bosch and Francis Bacon truly created something original, and so extraordinarily well written, it's inspiration is as divine to me as any other text and likely a more. Uamced version of the future truth, without completely fatalistic and dystopian view. The general computation of a man who has expanded his mind and through it had come tthrough to epiphany unseen by most. On a lighter note, while I was truly a child of Star Wars and still dearly love much if it, and numerous other works of sci-fi, it's almost laughable how far ahead Herbert was and how even other works which are considered pivotal or critical are nothing but the offspring of Asimov and moreover Herbert. I listen to your videos whilst I sleep to help cope with severe anxiety and PTSD and I want to thank you for this series. It's as remarkable as you are, and you expanded my mind and inspired me to read every word of Herbert's work and likely will many more times throughout my lifetime. That k you for this video and my apologies for the mild impatience on your community page. #cleansetheway #ofgoldenpathsandgratitude
I've just finished reading Heretics of Dune! I've really enjoyed all 5 thus far, some more than others obviously, but I think Heretics might just be my favourite of them all. Its story has the gravitas of the first three books and I feel it's message is more concise and understandable than that of God Emperor.
Excellent! Thank you for all the great videos on the books as well as the videos about the Dune Universe. I look forward to your interpretation of Chapterhouse Dune as I am sure that you will provide insights that I had not seen before. I hope that you will finish it soon. Thanks.
Started rewatching your series on Monday (for the 3rd time), bless Paul Muad'dib he knew and sent his most faithful and loyal Fedaykin with another video. Thanks for your series, been a dune fan since the 80s and listen to the audio books while at work all the time and warhammer 30/40k also.
Thanks Quinn, I recently bought the books again and did the re-read, about the third time in 40 years, I only read the first four books 3 times and I dropped off with Heretics and chapter house. I’m glad I read Heretics again, it felt like a new book to me and your video on the subject was such reinforcer of what I just read. You really did a great job!
You were a major influence on introducing me to this series. Having finished it, I just wanted to say thanks. Heretics is objectively the most entertaining.
Thank you sooo much for your Dune videos! Watching them was much easier than re-reading the thousands of pages just to keep the whole story straight in my head. You did a great job!
I discovered how awsome Dune is through these videos. So when I read the books and watched the crappy movie and slightly less crappy series I see and read it through your perspective. Sometimes that is not a good thing but in this case it was a gift. Just a fantastic job dude
Fantasy has an uncanny way of becoming reality. Five thousand years from now who is to say some parts of this fictional novel will not become reality. You have great talent young man, I wish you well.
Thank you for this. It rekindled a lot of awesome memories and admiration of the intriguing storylines in the last books of the Dune sage by Frank Herbert. The Bene Gesserit are infinitely fascinating. Reminding me of a supreme intelligent beehive structured culture.
Hey Quinn, I just wanted to say after I saw the movie the algorithm just knew I had to watch your channel. After a few of your videos I started to read the books and im a quarter of the way into Chapterhouse and man I just gotta say your videos are so detailed and thorough! I guess I just wanted to say great freaking work and I can't wait for the Chapterhouse video.
I love this books .. I just adore this whole series in its entirety..and so many people stop at the first book or the second! I feel like the story is so incomplete and the each book puts the others into a whole new context .. just brilliant
sweeeeeeet!! been looking forward to this!! youre breakdowns are fantastic, your editing and voiceover work are impressive in all your previous ones, i bet this one will be great too
A note about Ixian navigation devices. They were not 100% reliable at this time, which is why the spacing guild still had some level of power and leverage. To use an Ixian navigator was to be willing to lose that ship somewhere unknown.
Thats not my recollection. Pre-ixian nav computers of the B. jihad were safe 90% of the time. Post-God-Emperor Tleilaxu nav computers had no such limitation.
Please, please, pleeaaaasseee release chapterhouse. As much as I'm enjoying your coverage of emerging Dune 2021 information my hunger for the chapterhouse video dwarves all else.
Just finished going through the audio for this book, again, after a long time (I'm almost all the way through Cahpterhouse actually, too). Such a difference from the first Dune book, always seems like a lifetime ago.
man I can't wait to see your ultimate guide to chapterhouse, these videos got me into Dune, I just finished Children of Dune the other day and I am loving God Emperor already ^_^
Thanks for the video man, been listening to HoD on audio book but really had a hard time getting into it and wrapping my head around the overall story. Hard enough to read with Add and the audio books seem more appropriate but damn, Herbert's writing style going forward without taking any pauses between pages is.... Dense. Thanks to your video got a clearer understanding, have a good one!
Quinn, long time fan from the asoif realm. U and lml are amazing. But I really wanted to thank you. Like genuinely. I would have never gotten into Dune without u. The sole reason I did was because of ur knowledge and understanding of asoif, I was like if he says Dune is that good, it must be. So I gave it a shot. Really tough read when u first dive in. Ur videos helped me go deep into the lore and really helped me understand how special Dune is. I really appreciate you man!!!
Can I just comment on how brilliant Frank Herbert is to have come up with all those philosophical aphorisms before every chapter. It is really effing hard to do. Genius.

Not a lot of people talk about this book, but I've always found it to be one of the best reads in the series.
A barfly I used to drink with game the a Dune book years ago and I never read it… been binging your videos though and I’m gonna look for that book!
Miles Teg is an MVP. Everyone sleeps on Heretics.
I really liked the first half, but it got a bit boring somehow in the second half. Most books had thst for me somehow... Especially children of dune. Maybe if i re read those books again. Started chapterhouse dune now, and then the 2 final brian herbert books as well.
Oh my God!! It's 6:39 a.m.! Let me get a Starbucks, grandkids off to school, now it's just IOIAF!! The master storyteller has my undivided attention!!
Your reading of the series is exquisite. It is no exaggeration to say that when I imagine Dune as a story your voice is literally the one inside my head. You have immersed me in the Dune universe.
Totally. I would buy all this guys audiobooks.
AMEN BROTHER
Seriously. Scott Vance and Quinn *are* the tone of Dune for me.
Dude, you need to start a career in reading audiobooks. I could listen to this all day. Excellent speaker.
agree someones got to sign this dude up ...he should be consulting on the new Dune movies .... im sure he'll do more cool stuff
Yes I agree, Quinn has an excellent reading voice.
I agree that he has a good voice for reading, but his vocal inflections sometimes miss the mark. This is a very minor thing. He has pauses in...awkward places when reading direct verbiage from the novels. Most of the time it is spot on, but when he misses, it jars me. I am maybe hyper-critical; I am an English teacher at the high school level, and have a definite idea of how these should be read. A- for these videos.
I totally agree bravo
I agree I enjoy the books more because of the voice
I love that scene in Tabr when Odrade reads the message from Leto, gave me serious chills when I first read it. The highlight of the book for me, like after the events of God Emperor his fingerprints are still there to help humanity
It's doubly insane because IIRC the Bene Gesserit at this point are all supposed to have Siona blood and be immune to prescience (which is why Duncan can't leave the no-ship; some of his cells lack the marker). How the hell does Leto know as much as he does?
Same here.
@@Ensign_Cthulhu I guess the title fits him: God
I always come to these videos after I finish a book to sort out what I just read
Waff is one of my favorite "tragic" characters. The Tleilaxu always seemed like they have a handle on things, and Waff is basically always going around, strutting his stuff. But in every single encounter with the Bene Gesserit, he's shown to be nowhere near as clever as them.
"WE GO WITH GOD!" Waff is hilarious with his constant religious orgasms.
The Bene Tleilax are formidable, it took thousands of years for the Bene Gesserit to crack their code and manipulate them. But they did. They always do.
@@vincentgodin-filion9942 I agree. When their inner religion was uncovered, Waff and the Tleilaxu through him, were manipulated finally to a degree that earns the original comment here.

I am waiting for Dune Flop House
Ditto! Looking forward to Chapterhouse.
Read it. You won’t even need a guide then.
@@JohnTorres1987 I’ve read it, but these guides offer a great synopsis.
Still waiting here as well.
IOIAF got me to read the whole series. The animations for the ultimate guides are so helpful for getting people into reading who normally prefer visual medium.
IdeasOfIceAndFire you have outdone yourself again! Lurvs!
Imo there is no greater visual medium than imagination. Nothing we can create can be equal to that which is created by the mind's eye.
The audio books narrated by Simon Vance beats all forms learning this series.
i concur
Where is your summary of Chapterhouse? Can't wait to listen to it!
I've been re-reading all the books because I've only read the sequels once. It's crazy how much better they are the second time around. I'm currently on Heretics and I can't believe how much I love it because I thought it was only okay the first time. You pick up so much of the nuance within the characters, story, and mythology on that second read. This later era in the story is fascinating with the mystery surrounding the scattering. I can already feel how much I'm going to be wishing that Frank Herbert would've been able to write that final book. I love these new characters and I'm going to be a mess all over again when I finish Chapterhouse.
I have literally read all of the 6 books Frank wrote, about a dozen times each or more from age 17 till now at 31
Dune really is the best Sci Fi series out there. I personally stopped after God Emperor because I thought I got every I needed out of the book series, obviously I thought wrong.
It's never too late. I thought I was not Smart enough to understand the different storylines, and here I'am.
same
I absolutely loved Heretics and Chapterhouse. You won't be disappointed!
After a few readings, the last 2 became my favorite. Herbert had a plan for this arc, and as a result the story really moves in a way the earlier books didn't, but always felt like a logical extension of the earlier works.
Of course they are a logical extension. When you read them the first time, the change in God emperor is quite shocking, after three books in the company of the same characters more or least. Paul, the lady Jessica, Alia, Stilgar, the baron, Gurney, Duncan... Okay, Duncan is not the best example. I am one of those who think that the change of the Duneverse in the second trilogy was for the better.
This entire series is just absolutely incredible - Dune has always been criminally underappreciated, imho... it really is the Lord of the Rings of science fiction, in terms of sheer scale, scope and detail - there have, of course, been other incredibly expansive sci-fi series since then, but Dune was arguably among the first (Asimov's 'Foundation' universe is the only rival from around that time - much as I love Foundation, though, I personally prefer Dune).
One thing I lover about the Dune universe is how the lack of advanced computer tech is a key plot point throughout the series. That world-building choice Herbert made when developing the lore was a actually a very risky position for science fiction, particularly at the time - while Asimov's novels and the Star Trek series espoused the advancement and development of computer tech, which was still very new at the time, Herbert all but threw that convention out completely, opting instead to have deprive his fictional societies of the kind of tech we all take for granted every day, forcing them to refocus their energy toward advancing human skills and traits to near-superhuman levels. And the scarcity of the means to participate in this form of advancement regresses humanity to a neo-feudal age more reminiscent of medieval societies.
When you really analyze this series' universe, you start to grasp how unconventionally risky and outside the box Dune truly was when it first debuted. Nobody had ever seen anything quite like it. I would argue that still nothing quite lives up to the outright sense of wonder and vastness that those first 6 novels projects...
The Last hundred pages elevated this book for me, putting it on par with the first. “GED” is still the most mind opening philosophical SF work, surpassing heinlein’s “Stranger In A Strange Land”.
I have gone back and re read the first four books in anticipation of the film, and to see how much I have changed since reading them as a angry rebel youth. Age brings wisdom and an understanding of life that is not attainable as an angry rebel youth. But, youth is action and has the ability to change.
I was first introduced to Dune as a kid with the old real time strategy games and the movie, before eventually reading the first four books in high school. Your series has made me want to dive back into the books I've already read with new purpose, and finally read the several that I missed. Thank you for this series, your love and dedication to this universe is apparent to all friend.
Dune 2000? Me too.
@@lennysmileyface I actually am juuuuust old enough to remember Dune II, which was then remade into Dune 2000. Both are awesome though, although it definitely confused me when I got into the books and the Ordos were mysteriously not a major third party lol
However, Emperor: Battle for Dune used stuff like the Tleilaxu and Ix, so it was pretty dope to eventually read about those.
@@robertroy7818 I would venture to guess that House Ordos in-game is basically derived from the Ixians. Although that is weird considering House Atreides and Harkonnen are in there, meaning they must have had the license to use the established houses.
These videos are so well done. Whenever I get stuck in a Dune novel, I use these videos to help me get excited to resume reading.
I never would have made it through God Emperor without your videos!
This series is such a valuable experience. Every Time I read or watch something Herbert I realize something new. thank you for helping me bridge my neurons.
Having read the Dune saga books 30~ years ago, I have always enjoyed the scope and power of the story. Having older eyes now, long reading is less comfortable, so I really enjoyed this abbreviated re-telling, allowing me to relive the highlights of the saga. These videos are very well done and the narrator is very mesmerizing! I guess the Chapter House edition of this series hasn't been produced yet, so I eagerly await to its arrival to continue enjoying this series.
You are actually amazing. You've revitalized my love Dune in such a huge way.
EisenhornM41 you and me both...
Wait 'til he gets around to Isaac Asimov's "Foundation" trilogy! That's gonna be just as special, or maybe a millimeter more than this current series.
Why is this comment up twice lol...
Ditto. The music and narration are really top notch. I love this channel. I read these books over 15 years ago and now I can't wait to read the Brian Herbert books (I know they won't be as good but I've so enjoyed reliving the books through these videos)
Derek Anthony Cymeks are pretty much an awful idea. I quite like Hunters and Sandworms though. Jmho.
I was literally fighting to stay awake to finish this half way to bed but unable to press pause.
Well done. Another fantastic rendition. 🥇
Ich glaub's nicht, this is like watching a Dune-movie of our dreams, that will never be made for real. Your mastery of telling/re-telling the Dune books has reached such heights. As I've said: unbelievable. But here it is! Thanks.
This was pretty good. 4th time I’m watching this particular episode. Heretics of Dune has been my favorite of the Dune books
I've been waiting for your Heretics guide! Thanks so much.
I love your sense of theatricality. It really brings the Dune content to life.
I just reread Heretics, so this is a rather sweet dessert following a hefty full-course meal.
God, I wish I could write like Frank Herbert. The guy was a philosopher in disguise, I swear.
I'm an amateur novelist myself, so this is like heaven for me! Thanks again.
"Do not ask 'why', be cautious with 'how'. One of my favorite lines from the series.
Mannnnn I binged the hell out of your videos. I saw the recent Dune movie and was immediately hooked. Then I watched it a second and third time. This was when I started to really wonder about the universe of Dune and began to drive into the lore. Then boom here comes your channel. Thank you so much. Dune is dope af and you my guy have taken my interest of this wonderful creation to deep levels. Now I'm heading to the library to get the books. Thanks homie for all of these videos and the passion that went into them. You have done a wonderful job and I appreciate you.
Really awesome job as always. This third arc withing the Dune universe is still my favourite, too bad Herbert died before finishing it ! We did got the decaf contradictory version of his son, too bad I didn't really liked it.
The next book is my personal favourite in the Dune series and too often overlooked. Please take as much time as you need to complete this awesome full recap of my beloved series !
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! The work you put into this would make FH so proud! You do a real service to us "Dune Heads".
This is really helping me digest the book, I'm currently reading and then watching this up until the point that I am and it's really shedding so much light on the mysticism! Long live the Sisterhood and may they survive and stop all this in-fighting!
I would wholeheartedly like to thank Quinns İdeas for making me listen throughout the entirety of Dune series he is epic
Did he do chapterhouse?
Thanks, that was nicely done. I'll share with you my favorite little bit of this truly great book. I realize you couldn't include it here, for obvious reasons of brevity and directness, of course. It's when Odrade is waiting for Sheanna to arrive at the Keep. Odrade looks out a window & down at the Plaza of Keen. She sees a group of men begin dancing a long, intricate dance - naked. A lot of things happen at once, but the main thing is her watching the dancers. Right at the end, when everything erupts in chaos, Sheanna arrives and walks up to Odrade. Something Sheanna says suddenly crystallizes Odrade's understanding, and she realizes the dance, the crowd, the chaos - all are part of the same thing: a language. The last sentence of the last paragraph of that section states that 'it had arisen the same way all languages had: *_out of necessity._* Herbert was bitingly insightful, and everything that happened in the Dune books happened for a reason. There was never a parade or a fight just to break up the monotony, or to fill out some pages. No 'pomp & circumstance.' Everything had a purpose. He also had this amazing ability to take normal aphorisms and turn them upside down; to turn the tables on expected wisdom. An example would be the line, "Those who would repeat the past, must control the teaching of history." It's like taking some weird corollary of a normal rule, and somehow showing *_that's the real truth._* He stripped the romanticism from such things, and laid bare human motivations. He was a master of *_both_* cutting directness *_and_* obfuscation. He could use technical jargon well enough to make your head spin - and he understood what he was saying. It wasn't just techno-babble! For Destination: Void, he actually used real ideas from computer programming. When a new edition came out, he went back and made changes to his own 'techno-babble' sounding (to me, anyway!) passages - to reflect the latest ideas in programming! Wow. That's all I can say. Wow. tavi.
Amo ese capitulo!! Yo lo tome más del lago de que el baile representa comunicación, un portal imaginario en el que el presente y el pasado se conectan, reflejando juntos un presente grotesco como solo puede hacer ese baile.
Miles Teg is one of my favorite Dune characters, great video as always!!🖖🏽
I am only familiar with the movie. I was a teenager the first time I saw it. I am now a senior citizen, listening to your series, I have ordered the series to read.
I love your voice. Very relaxing. Keep up the great work 👍 👏.
You actually got my wife interested in Dune, both the story and the relationship between the author and current events.
We met in 1988.. finally married in 2015.
Back then she thought I was strange, and now she’s began to understand the worlds I began to explore over 20 years ago.
Thank you, my friend.
(Do you think you might make a video about the ‘lost 7th novel?. Maybe using the authors notes as they did with Fitzgerald’s ‘Last Tycoon’?)
No one but Brian Herbert has that info and he refuses to show the real notes. Nepotism at its works, sadly, and he squandered the potential of an extended universe with him and KJA's awful ideas
I read the first dune book when I was around 14 years old. I had completely forgotten about it till i bumped into these videos then it all came back to me. This channel rekindled my love for the series.
I don't know if you'll ever read this, but just wanted to say that I love your channel! I don't think I would have ever had it in me to read Dune, but this has been an amazing way to learn about this incredible story. Listening to thousands of years of history has me seeing with new eyes.
Thanks Quinn! You're awesome!
Revisiting these after listening to Last Podcast On the Lefts Dune Podcast...while i appreciate the humor and love that they will hopefully open this series to whole new audiences, Quinn really tackles these books and themes with the intellectual maturity they deserve. I would say LPNs are the School House Rock of Dune, while Quinn is attending a course at University with a very passionate and knowledgeable professor. Well done.
after stumbling upon your channel and binging your Ultimate Guide to Dune these past 2 days..I'll be delighted to actually read it for myself in the near future. Regardless, I'm grateful for your loving and skillful craft of storytelling and voice work. Stupendous, thanks for being here. Can't wait to keep exploring your channel and-- with this renewed taste for audiobooks-- finally tap back into avidly reading, as I've done all life before. much love!
I AM a heretic of Dune. Because I love the Heretics of Dune and Chapterhouse Dune so much more than the first two books.
The trials and tribulations of the Sisterhood were of unbelievable fascination for me. If I could choose to live a lifetime in the Dune universe, it would be as a Bene Geserit Reverend Mother
You're right to prefer HD/CD.
Who wouldn’t want a assassin like female with advanced human genetics and abilities?
Your tripping, I’d wana play a jam with my main man gurney
Same! 😊
I wouldnt willingly undergo the spice agony lol
Quinn you need to do readings of the full series - seriously, you're the voice of the series!
I've been looking forward to this one in particular. I like GEoD more than most people, but I also greatly enjoy how Heretics and Chapterhouse recalibrate the Dune universe and expand it beyond Arrakis/Rakis to other worlds and other universes.
Heretics is my favourite of the series so far. Call me a heretic (heh heh heh) but I found God Emperor to be kind of a slog. Every time Leto II started off on yet another sermon, all I could do was roll my eyes and say "stfu Worm Man." But here comes Heretics, in which Sheeana says something to the effect of "finally some frickin excitement!!" I could not agree more. Given the themes of God Emperor and how he purposely enforced a monotonous peace that would lead to the Scattering, I can't help but wonder if this Boring Slog to Frickin' Excitement tone change was by design. If so--well-played, Mr. Herbert. Well played.
As a Leto II enjoyer, I feel offended by your heretical views.
HERESY 😂😂😂
Paul Atreides: I am the whirlwind!
Miles Teg: Hold my beer.
Probably my favorite part in all the books. Also see the Futurama episode where Fry drinks 100 cups of coffee :D
Paul Atreides: I am the whirlwind!
Miles Teg: Hold my SPICE.
My favorite book of the series. I want to be like Teg when I grow up. Best character in the whole Dune Universe IMO!
You will get to be like him, more or least, of course. Sheeana is my favorite and I think that if I were in her place, I would have taken exactly the same decisions. Don't know why but I already feel very similar to her, and I think that the people who know me feel the same. So I trust you, although I do not know you.
I finished reading Heretics today and I was not expecting to find one of my favorite characters this late in the series.
Miles Teg is a boss
For the past 6 months I have been listening to these guides to dune right before bed.
I can say I haven’t slept much since, it’s too engaging!!
wow.... i've read heretics about five times (some of the others more over the past 35+ years), but you're highlighting scenes i've somehow missed and their significance. thanks!
Thank you for your fantastic work. Listening to you is so relaxing, I admire your deep insight into my favourite pieces of literature 🖤
Sometimes I listen to these when I can’t sleep, it’s calming. I love the long videos! Very well done.
This is lightyears better than any audiobook I could find for Dune online. I've been listening to your series while working, and I don't know what to do now that you've finished!
You should definitely consider narrating audiobooks. Fantastic voice acting and atmosphere.
Again i say, i do not understand how people thing these last 3 books couldnt be adapted to film... seriously this story is amazing, it would make a great movie/show..
Too expensive
Teg, Odrade, and Waff are some of the best characters Frank Herbert penned. Even more so for Odrade when Chapterhouse rolls by.
I love to see all the love and interest you are generating for my favorite book series ever
Although I still prefer Heretics to God Emp. (because it prefers plot to pontification), I now consider it-- having just re-read it-- a bit of "throw everything at the wall and see what sticks." Solid summary on your part.
I catch alot of flack when I tell ppl that "Heretics" is one of my all-time favorites. Its a very intriguing story and so much more lore packed into 1 tome.
Heretics is also one of my favourite!!!
@@jopeDE which is your favorite part of the book? My favorite is Tegs awaking while fighting the tortures of the scatterings version of a t-probe.
@@johnjones2nd667 yea i love that scene! i dont have a favorite part its all great
It's my favorite of the series. You're not alone.
It is a good book.
Though I did have a little trouble at times telling the one Bene Gesserit from the other, partly because I took a long time reading the book.
Leto's message to the Sisterhood was so strong.
Thank you so much for this! I read all the books years ago and had forgotten all the subtle nuances of Frank Herbert's writing. Keep up the great work!
After Dune, God Emperor and Heretics are my next favorites.
Odrade should get more videos about her
Edit: Seriously though I'd love to see more videos centered on aspects from Heretics and Chapterhouse. And characters like Odrade, Lucilla, Taraza, Murbella, and Sheeana are my bread and butter... also Teg he's everyone's favorite
I agree
He has one out now. Wow loving it
She’s badassss
Who’d play here in a movie I wonder?
I first read the Dune series when I was in middle school, and they legitimately changed my life. I've read them a few times since, picking up things I missed the first time. I really appreciate you doing this series of videos, for helping rekindle the love for this series I had.
I couldn't finish Hertics. I lost the passion for Dune sometime while reading it. I might get back to it one day, but I appreciate that you are doing this Ultimate Guide to it. Thanks.
Really, really, really well produced. your channel is a boon. On the subject it self: although God Emperor and original Dune remain my favourites, Heretics is right behind them. You can't shake off the feeling of imminent doom, of powerful and frankly, self-absorbed women (and men) slowly losing control while they still cling to their own grandiosity.
I just finished Heretics of Dune for the first time. The axlotl tanks give me goosebumps. I can't imagine being that Duncan ghola and I wonder if Super Teg can eat more than Goku?
Great narration. I had to listen after hearing the audio book to tie up things I missed. I really enjoyed this book and the story of the BG. I do think the plot twists ended up leaving some plot holes. And Super Saiyan Teg was by far my favorite
Just watched all these and sad to see it was never completed. Really hope the final episode comes out eventually; these are so well done.
Part 7 is out.
The drawing of Odrade at about 11:30 is damn near as I pictured her when reading it some twenty tears ago.
It just makes me love her more.
Heretics of Dune is a good book, however, the God Emperor is my favorite and Chapterhouse is guess my second most favorite book of the series. Great video. I like your voice.
Good choice. Heretics is my favourite, and Sheeana is my favourite carácter of the entire series. God Emperor of Dune is my second. His voice is great, I especially love how he plays Waff.
The tyrant worm had hyperprescience since his childhood. He lived more than 3 millennia and possessed all the knowledge of the universe. On top of that, nobody else could understand the fucking Golden Path. You know, he could spend centuries playing philosophizing with himself. Anyway, my least favorite is Messiah. I agree with you, Hunters might make a good movie. IMO the book is OK if we ignore the end. When I read it, I found very interesting epic and grotesque scenes. And of course, my dear Sheeana always awesome.
@@zannaifacedancer5915
Messiah is a very bad book. The plot is muddled and almost impossible to follow.
God Emperor is my favorite as well, but my second favorite is the 1st novel.
I dare not say that any book of the Dune series is bad, but in my view Messiah is the worse. I found the conspiracy very predictable and the end too tragic. Also I did not believe that Alia forgave Irulan. After poisoning someone you decide to take care of her children... It does not make any sense to me.
I just re-read Heretics of Dune. What a treat it is, to watch this segment again. Fantastic, Quinn. Thank you
Quinn, I've been a reader since a very young age. I grew up in am unconventional family of progressive greatest generationers and liberal hippie parents. My father gave me Tolkien when I was six, and I of course started with the hobbit. I did eventually get a Nintendo and other gaming systems but television and gaming were a treat. My grandmother taught me to print in cursive, Pittman shorthand and pristinely so. This was in a very old portion of the US, the north shore of Boston as it's called. I spent summers in wildlife camps and accelerated academic programs. I read the classics because I was encouraged but also as much because I desired to do so. I've read thr complete works of Tolkien, Lewis, the Greeks, Marcus Aurelius, the bible, qu'ran and torah [abrahamic] I read Rowling along with Steimneck and Rand, Tolstoy, The good doctor "Gonzo: Thompson and James Frey, David Sedaris, Billy Shakes and I only elaborate such because these are the foundations of oral tradition, our genetic memory and there is very little new under the sun, at least not since the inception of the abrahamic religions. I had a mentor who's since passed that prostelized the lofty accomplishments of Frano Herbert's Dune. I can say without apprehension that Asimov and Herbert like Heironomys Bosch and Francis Bacon truly created something original, and so extraordinarily well written, it's inspiration is as divine to me as any other text and likely a more. Uamced version of the future truth, without completely fatalistic and dystopian view. The general computation of a man who has expanded his mind and through it had come tthrough to epiphany unseen by most.
On a lighter note, while I was truly a child of Star Wars and still dearly love much if it, and numerous other works of sci-fi, it's almost laughable how far ahead Herbert was and how even other works which are considered pivotal or critical are nothing but the offspring of Asimov and moreover Herbert.
I listen to your videos whilst I sleep to help cope with severe anxiety and PTSD and I want to thank you for this series. It's as remarkable as you are, and you expanded my mind and inspired me to read every word of Herbert's work and likely will many more times throughout my lifetime. That k you for this video and my apologies for the mild impatience on your community page. #cleansetheway #ofgoldenpathsandgratitude
Reminded me how much I loved the series and a relief after God Emperor Duncan Idaho is like “Man Friday” and steals the show every book
I've just finished reading Heretics of Dune! I've really enjoyed all 5 thus far, some more than others obviously, but I think Heretics might just be my favourite of them all. Its story has the gravitas of the first three books and I feel it's message is more concise and understandable than that of God Emperor.
Excellent! Thank you for all the great videos on the books as well as the videos about the Dune Universe.
I look forward to your interpretation of Chapterhouse Dune as I am sure that you will provide insights that I had not seen before. I hope that you will finish it soon. Thanks.
Started rewatching your series on Monday (for the 3rd time), bless Paul Muad'dib he knew and sent his most faithful and loyal Fedaykin with another video.
Thanks for your series, been a dune fan since the 80s and listen to the audio books while at work all the time and warhammer 30/40k also.
Thanks Quinn, I recently bought the books again and did the re-read, about the third time in 40 years, I only read the first four books 3 times and I dropped off with Heretics and chapter house. I’m glad I read Heretics again, it felt like a new book to me and your video on the subject was such reinforcer of what I just read. You really did a great job!
Thank you sir we are all looking forward to this. Sure to be excellent
Of all the characters in all the sci-fi/fantasy books I've read, Miles Teg is the most intriguing to me.
Would you say Heretics is the coolest most action packed in the series? So much good imagery. Book 5 is my fave.
You were a major influence on introducing me to this series. Having finished it, I just wanted to say thanks. Heretics is objectively the most entertaining.
When are you doing Chapterhouse Dune? I just watched all of these and love them!
Thank you sooo much for your Dune videos! Watching them was much easier than re-reading the thousands of pages just to keep the whole story straight in my head. You did a great job!
I discovered how awsome Dune is through these videos. So when I read the books and watched the crappy movie and slightly less crappy series I see and read it through your perspective. Sometimes that is not a good thing but in this case it was a gift. Just a fantastic job dude
Fantasy has an uncanny way of becoming reality. Five thousand years from now who is to say some parts of this fictional novel will not become reality. You have great talent young man, I wish you well.
Beautifully done! Though I can't... I just can't help but picture all of it in the 1984 movie visuals.
FWIW2U, I did the same while reading it some 15 years ago.
Frank's writing, with the Butlerian prohibitions put me into steampunk mode.
@@nooneyoucaretoknow6986 The steampunk no-computers thing was one aspect which Lynch's film, for all its flaws, got very right.
Thank you for this. It rekindled a lot of awesome memories and admiration of the intriguing storylines in the last books of the Dune sage by Frank Herbert. The Bene Gesserit are infinitely fascinating. Reminding me of a supreme intelligent beehive structured culture.
Hey Quinn, I just wanted to say after I saw the movie the algorithm just knew I had to watch your channel. After a few of your videos I started to read the books and im a quarter of the way into Chapterhouse and man I just gotta say your videos are so detailed and thorough! I guess I just wanted to say great freaking work and I can't wait for the Chapterhouse video.
I love this books .. I just adore this whole series in its entirety..and so many people stop at the first book or the second! I feel like the story is so incomplete and the each book puts the others into a whole new context .. just brilliant
Books 1, 3, and 5 are my favorites. Thanks for this great video!
Jere U don't like God Emperor? Surely book 3 is onlyva precursor to book 4...no?
The further in the series, the more incomprehensible it becomes. Even with Quin’s excellent summary.
sweeeeeeet!! been looking forward to this!! youre breakdowns are fantastic, your editing and voiceover work are impressive in all your previous ones, i bet this one will be great too
I don't know how to DM Quinn's Ideas but I can't wait for Ultimate guide to Chapter House!! So hype!!! Gunna be great!!!!
A note about Ixian navigation devices. They were not 100% reliable at this time, which is why the spacing guild still had some level of power and leverage. To use an Ixian navigator was to be willing to lose that ship somewhere unknown.
Thats not my recollection. Pre-ixian nav computers of the B. jihad were safe 90% of the time. Post-God-Emperor Tleilaxu nav computers had no such limitation.
@@mjbgdaad5624 Well, doesn't the 90% reliability still equal not reliable 100% of the time?
@@olliefoxx7165 Let me rephrase in more clear terms: Ixian navigation devices were reliable 100% of the time. So yes, they were 100% reliable.
🤷🏼♂️
All day. The whole day. Listening to parts 1 through 6. I couldn't stop.
2 years later and I'm still waiting for Chapterhouse...
Please, please, pleeaaaasseee release chapterhouse. As much as I'm enjoying your coverage of emerging Dune 2021 information my hunger for the chapterhouse video dwarves all else.
Not having a part 7 to this series hurts more then GOT not having any new books for 20 years.
same, been checking for almost a year
The spice melange
Why he stopped?
@@MichelNJoia It's still under production. He is commissioning artwork for it.
@@DanteAtropos thanks!!
When I don't have the time to reread the books, I get my dune fix here. Such a great job. Thanks Quinn
Just finished going through the audio for this book, again, after a long time (I'm almost all the way through Cahpterhouse actually, too).
Such a difference from the first Dune book, always seems like a lifetime ago.
Now done watching this video after 3:10am and I am still amazed at how beautiful this story is...Thank you for uploading this...
man I can't wait to see your ultimate guide to chapterhouse, these videos got me into Dune, I just finished Children of Dune the other day and I am loving God Emperor already ^_^
Thanks for the video man, been listening to HoD on audio book but really had a hard time getting into it and wrapping my head around the overall story. Hard enough to read with Add and the audio books seem more appropriate but damn, Herbert's writing style going forward without taking any pauses between pages is.... Dense.
Thanks to your video got a clearer understanding, have a good one!
Just finished watching the first 6 parts, fantastic job! Looking forward to Chapterhouse!
Quinn, long time fan from the asoif realm. U and lml are amazing. But I really wanted to thank you. Like genuinely. I would have never gotten into Dune without u. The sole reason I did was because of ur knowledge and understanding of asoif, I was like if he says Dune is that good, it must be. So I gave it a shot. Really tough read when u first dive in. Ur videos helped me go deep into the lore and really helped me understand how special Dune is. I really appreciate you man!!!
