About this listen

Fifty-six hard years after the events of The Machine Crusade, after the death of Serena Butler, the bloodiest decades of the Jihad take place. The human worlds begin to hope that the end of the centuries-long conflict with the thinking machines is finally in sight.

Unfortunately, Omnius has one last, deadly card to play. In a last-ditch effort to destroy humankind, virulent plagues are let loose throughout the galaxy, decimating the populations of whole planets. The war that has lasted many lifetimes will be decided in the apocalyptic Battle of Corrin.

In the greatest battle of science fiction history, human and machine face off one last time....And on the desert planet of Arrakis, the legendary Fremen of Dune become the feared fighting force to be discovered by Paul Maud'Dib in Frank Herbert's classic, Dune.

great finale to the Jihad

I thoroughly enjoyed the Jihad trilogy. sure, it's not the same as Frank's work but I feel it does the universe justice and injects more lore into a great universe. highly recommended

Final showdown between man and machine

This novel tied up all the events from this particular trilogy.
I felt that previous book was better than this, however, this novel was well done.

Continuing 20 yrs after the events of the previous novel, the army of the Jihad has become complacent with Omnious and his Machine army trapped on Corrin.
Humanity is moving past the Jihad while Supreme Bashar Vorian Atreides tries to persuade the League of Nobels to finish off the machines for good, including the rebellious Titans and Neo-cymek's.
Abalurd Harkonnen strives to bring honor back to his grandfather and his family name.
Rena Buttler's gathering of Machine hating fanatics has grown large enough to affect political structures.
Venkee Enterprises continues to strive forward to fix the fold space navigation problem.
The Sorceress' of Rossak face their upmost trials and tribulations.
In addition, Ishmael finally comes to understand his old friend Alid as he battles with overwhelming changes occurring on Arrakis.
Ever curious Erasmus also makes huge leaps and bounds with his understanding of humanity.

Overall I waa thrilled to learn of these multi planetary events that had such drastic ramifications on humanity leading towards how the galactic is set for the original Dune saga.

We need more words for a real review.

There's not enough room in this space to give a decent review for this book.

Best of the original prequel series

Absolutely enjoyed this book - the story that began in The Butlerian Jihad & Machine Crusade cumulated perfectly in the Battle of Corrin while also tying into the the original Dune Series. Can’t wait to start the next set of prequel novels from Dune!

Great conclusion to the Legends of Dune trilogy

I have been a Dune fan for many years but for some reason always found Frank Herbert style very hard to read (and listen). I read the original 6 books a few years back and didn't want to go back to the Dune universe.

However, based on a friend recommendation, I got the 3 audio books in Audible and I now can say that this probable one of the best Sci-Fi trilogies I ever read. The 3 main characters are all so well described, the enemy is one that you can identify (and hate as well) and the story is enthralling.

This book has make me want to read the rest of the books, I already have them in my Audible library now!

So, if you are a Sci Fi fan, you like deep and enthralling stories and don't mind your Sci Fi to be less about spaceships shooting lasers to each other and more about how mankind will fare in the really far future, this is the perfect book for you! #Audible1

Provides good insight of what's to come

I enjoyed it, it was interesting as the previous in the dune sage. However, the end seems a little rushed and simplistic. (e.g. how Agamemnon was killed). The end gives a sneak peak of the origin of some dynamics.
