Synopsis: This is basically the conclusion of the dune sage. Drama on the no-ship. Murbella is trying to band humanity together to defeat the thinking machines. The Face dancers under Khrone have some conspiracy in the works. And Omninus is relentless is his pursuit of humanity.
Thoughts: Basically, it sucked. It’s your standard pop science fiction pile of dribble. I read it because it’s the finishing book of the dune cycle but I can’t believe that this was the plot that Frank Herbert, my beloved Frank Herbert, wrote. It was so bad and contrived and stupid.
