So I just finished Sandworms of Dune and I read Hunters last summer. I have to say I'm not sure if this is what Frank Herbert had in mind, but I have to say that it was a satisfying conclusion to a great Science Fiction series.

What does everyone else think?

I am a big reader of many genres, though I haven't tapped into much sci-fi, I'd be interested in what you have to say for the series as a whole. (I can also recommend vast amounts of great series' for you if you don't have something picked out yet.):)

Classic Dune
Dune
Dune Messiah
Children of Dune
God Emperor of Dune
Heretics of Dune
Chapter House: Dune
Hunters of Dune
Sandworms of Dune

Legends of Dune
Dune: The Burtlerian Jihad
Dune: The Machine Crusade
Dune: The Battle of Corrin

Prelude to Dune
Dune: House Atreides
Dune: House Harkonnen
Dune: House Corrino

The chronological order of the stories is Legends, Prelude then Classic series.

I would recommend reading the Classic series first, but after that it's anyones bet which should be read second.

Enjoy.

I loved classic Dune, and I read two of the three of Preludes, but I hated the prequels. They were horrible.

I haven't read Sandworms, but if it is worth the read I will pick it up tomorrow.

I highly recommend that you read God Emperor of Dune and that'll tell you what you should read next. Frankly, this is probably the best Dune book of all.
