Ultra-condensed story of the Dune books:
1. Dune
Frank Herbert: I'm lots smarter than you are. I challenge you to understand even one of my paragraphs!
Reader: Gee, Frank Herbert is smart. I can't even find the plot.
2. Dune Messiah
Everyone: We're absurdly over-intelligent with identical personalities.
(The Conspirators do some mysterious conspiracy stuff.)
Muad'Dib: Now that I have two children which need my support and care, I'll wander off into the desert and die for no particular reason.
Everyone: Wahh.
3. Children of Dune
(People do stuff that is OUT OF CHARACTER. People do stuff that makes NO SENSE. Cool arabic-type words and names are said, making Frank Herbert look SMART and COOL.)
4. God Emperor of Dune
Leto II: Infinity.
Reader: Ouch, my head just exploded.
