He should produce films up to Children of Dune at least before resorting to KJA's rubbish.
I don't think Denis Villeneuve is involved at all in the TV show.

To be perfectly honest, none of the Dune books are terribly good writing. The world-building is incredible though.I don't think Denis Villeneuve is involved at all in the TV show.
I would be very happy to see more film/TV material based around the world of the first few books, but telling their own stories.
30 - 60 mins per chapter / podcast its probably quicker to read the book lol..If you really don't have time to read the first two books (~700 pages total) then yeah.
I do not like fanfic. You can tell other stories without it being horrendous writing.His writing is marmite but far from bad. God Emperor is where it starts to get weird and drop in quality imo.
KJA and BHerbert have written a load of stuff like that if you like fanfic.
Another vote for QI, most of his Dune content is worth a watch, he has a very deep and comprehensive understanding of the universe.Quinn's Ideas on Youtube has hour long guides to each book. They're pretty good.
@Steampunk what would you recommend?

There is a rich vein of content to draw from though....in the vein of Andor, telling stories set in aspects on the wider universe, so much good stuff

Everyone loves the dinner scene and lots were disappointed it didn't make the film, someone said it was filmed but got cut outJust going through the audiobook about 6 hours in. They were having dinner and there was a banker who was a secret harkonan? Don't think that was in the movie right?
