Customer Reviews
this makes dune even better !
love that i can better understand dunes crazy complex lore
Knowledgeable BUT
These guys know the books well but I find that even their deep dives don’t go that deep. It’s a very superficial exploration most times. The attempts at humor are just bad. And way too frequent. Not saying people shouldn’t have fun doing this but… it’s not open mic night.
Could use more experts of some of these issues or literature people on the pod more often. The authors make a lot of assumptions in my opinion on motivations and the plot/story.
Also. Quit using the Dune Encyclopedia. It’s awful fanfic and at $200 a copy on the secondary market most average Dune readers aren’t going to go get a copy.
Best Podcast in the Dune Universe!
This is a phenomenal podcast about one of the greatest tales told in the last century. The treat the material thoroughly, but never dryly, and you can tell they enjoy what they're doing.
I can't recommend this 'cast highly enough. Great people doing a great job!
