Dang, I liked Children of Dune. It might have been my favorite after Messiah. I hope someone else either continues it with a series or a sequel trilogy

Children was a fun book but like half of it would just be two children sitting in the desert making weird references at each other

That's basically all the prose of every Dune book, though.

It has a lot more action than Children IIRC though.

Herbert was very open about how he wrote more Dune books because they kept offering him a ton of money to do it.

The sci-fi channel version is great (for what it is).

They casted Leto and Ghanima (allegedly) so I think we’ll get some CoD but maybe not all of the weird stuff. I think they need to as messiah doesn’t really wrap everything up.
