This is a book I was not sure how I felt about until I finished it. It's confusing, and the story gets messy, but Paul's entire arc hooked me. I think the biggest thing holding this book back for me, at least on the first read, is how complicated the Duncan Idaho plotline is. I really didn't understand much of it until the end, where things finally clicked. Maybe that was the intent? Also, the whole romance between him and Alia felt so forced, and just kind of came out of nowhere. Paul's visions and intent were also very unclear, but I liked it as it really put me into the shoes of the other characters.
Overall, a fantastic conclusion to the story of Muad'Dib. Definitely a book I'm going to reread.
I'll probably get to Children of Dune in a little while.
