About this title: The breathtaking vision and incomparable storytelling of Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson's "Dune: The Butlerian Jihad," a prequel to Frank Herbert's classic "Dune," propelled it to the ranks of speculative fiction's classics in its own right. Now, with all the color, scope, and fascination of the prior novel, comes "Dune: The Machine Crusade." More than two decades have passed since the events chronicled in "The Butlerian Jihad," The crusade against thinking robots has ground on for years, but the forces led by Serena Butler and Irbis Ginjo have made only slight gains; the human worlds grow ...

"The author's relatively simply writing style is offset by their imagination and creativity. They avoid trite pit falls in their various scenarios and paint a picture of complex contrasts where characterizations of motives and results conflict with appearance and realities
In order to grasp some of the most complex aspects of the machine world characters in this book one must read the authors prequels (particularly The Battle of Corin) to the original Dune."
"This volume of Dune series written by son of Frank Herbert was for me far more better written than those I'd read before. Great characters and setting."
"I keep hoping that these later written books are worth the read. They are not. Often they aren't even really on the topic of the title. This one was just a rambling "history" without any real plot. Even when one of the characters looses their life mate, no emotional response & she was human."
"Enough to interest any fan of the Dune series. The saga continues, but it can be read without previous knowledge. Exceptional perhaps in the way that it can actually cause the reader to sympathize (occasionally) with the Thinking Machines in the continuing struggle against the both heroic and dastardly humans."
