Great review! I actually loved this book. It felt fresh. I was enthralled. ❤
Thanks ;)
Ah! I'd been anticipating this review. I finished Heretics a while ago but ended with little interest to keep going. God Emperor was rich with Frank Herbert's ideas, and the book should be read for those ideas.
I believe the genetic aspect of the book/series is very important. You say religion is upstream of culture, which I agree with to some extent, but genes are upstream of both of those.
Keep up the reviews! I enjoy your thoughts
I hadn’t thought of genes as “upstream of religion.” Let me ponder that!
What do you get if you mash Plato's Republic and a bad YA romance novel together? GEoD
Lol
@@StephenHeiner I finished out Heretics of Dune & Chapterhouse Dune. IMO books 5 & 6 are better than this book. Don't be afraid about the cliff hanger ending of 6. It closes off enough story arcs to feel satisfying even though it is open ended. I have become a Dune fan. BTW...David Lynch's Dune turns 40 this year.
@@dustinneelythanks for the scoop!
