    I’ve only read the first two so far, and the 2nd was good, but not on the same level as dune 1. Is the third worth reading?

      I really liked Heretics, and god-emperor is widely agreed to be one of the best if not the best of the whole series. 3 is a bit slow, but none of them are bad.

        God emperor of dune is by far the best but needs the preceding volumes to build up to it

      It moves along the story, but from the other replies to my comment, I didn’t get Dune-pilled hard enough. =)

      Its not bad, though, don’t get me wrong.

      For my money, I could have stopped at the third and probably would have had a pretty high opinion of the series. The fourth one, for me anyways, was interesting in that it had a very different tone but I was reading the books back to back and it felt different enough that it was jarring to my expectations.
