Publisher Description
From Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson, Dune: The Lady of Caladan is a brand new novel in the internationally bestselling Dune series.
Lady Jessica, mother of Paul, and consort to Leto Atredies. The choices she made shaped an empire, but first the Lady of Caladan must reckon with her own betrayal of the Bene Gesserit. She has already betrayed her ancient order, but now she must decide if her loyalty to the Sisterhood is more important than the love of her own family.
Meanwhile, events in the greater empire are accelerating beyond the control of even the Reverend Mother, and Lady Jessica's family is on a collision course with destiny.

“Characters and plot are thus beautifully set up, the timing is precise...the universe...is so vast, complex and fascinating that the magic lingers.

Dune: The Lady of Caladan Listener Reviews
-
" Terrible. This trilogy is supposed to be immediately before the original novel Dune, but there are SO MANY things that don't fit with the character and setting of the original book. THese authors have apparently been writing Dune books for a long time and I am appalled that they would write material that is so out of touch with the original books. 1) I am not seeing how Leto is becoming "popular" among the Landsrad [sic]. It appears he is trying to uncover a plot and that the Harkonnens will frame him in order to turn the emperor against him, but that is not something that would not have been discussed by the characters later on. 2) Jessica is not at all the main character of this book as I expected. She is just one of a cast of supporting characters. This is ostensibly her book, but all she does is fail and go for a pointless interview with a hag at the mother school. 3) These events are WAY TOO consequential to be immediately before the Dune books with Paul as a 14 year old. I could go on and on but I don't want to waste any more time. I doubt I will be getting the third book and that is RARE for me to not finish a series. Utterly nonsensical book. Don't recommend. "
