This series uses material from the Great Schools of Dune trilogy by Brian Herbert and Kevin J

Scenario

Two Harkonnen sisters battle forces that threaten the future of humanity and found the legendary sect that would become known as the Bene Gesserit. Whether they’re exploring the stars, escaping a dystopia, or making the world a better place, these women are the essence of science fiction. Anderson.

The original Dune prequel, it tells the story of how the Brotherhood of Rosak evolved into the Bene Gesserit. The incident with Valya Harkonnen, using voiceover, is taken from an incident called “Mentats from Dune”. The three books intertwine the development of the Brotherhood, the Mentats, the Navigators, and the Suk Doctors.

So what’s the “formula”?

I’ve read and watched a lot of fantasy/sdi-fi in my life, and I think I can immediately recognize a winner, whether it’s The Fifth Element, The Lord of the Rings, Edge of Tomorrow, The Matrix, GOT, or 12 Monkeys. I’ve seen ALL the classics – too many to list here. She captivates you and you have to see more!

and so on

The plot and characters draw you in, there are delightful surprises, it feels real… I agree that some of the weaker actors aren’t that good… and it’s unlikely that the swordmaster would be so ridiculously young…

A class production in every way

but overall the series so far has been intriguing, watchable, and suspenseful. The “prediction” element is delicious, and I really can’t wait to see what happens next.
