More millennia pass until Heretics of Dune and Chapterhouse: Dune, which tell of tensions that arise among the keepers of Arrakis after waves of refugees return from the Scattering, fleeing from a great enemy.Access-restricted-item true Addeddate 03:07:24 Boxid IA40236104 Camera USB PTP Class Camera Collection_set printdisabled External-identifier The result is the Scattering, humanity’s forced spread across the universe. With God Emperor of Dune, the story jumps thousands of years ahead as Leto II’s plan to prevent the extinction of humanity reaches its pivotal moment. Before fan pressure convinced Herbert otherwise, this was the intended end of the series.
The pair of them, particularly Leto II Atreides, come into their own in Children of Dune. Paul struggles with his power in Dune Messiah, ultimately bequeathing it to his twin heirs.

They are similarly epic in scope, both authors died before completing the final expansions of their worlds, and both had sons who took up the mantle. Tolkien may have recoiled at this remark if he ever heard it, but the two works have certainly had comparable impacts on their respective genres (even if Lord of the Rings penetrated further into the wider culture). Clarke, once said of Frank Herbert’s Dune, “I know of nothing comparable to it except Lord of the Rings.” J.R.R.
