This series uses material from the Great Schools of Dune trilogy by Brian Herbert and Kevin J
Story
Two Harkonnen sisters fight against forces threatening the future of humanity and found a fabled sect known as the Bene Gesserit. Whether they’re exploring the stars, escaping a dystopia, or making the world a better place, these women are what science fiction is all about… Anderson.

A prequel to the original Dune, it tells the story of how the Sisterhood of Rossak evolved into the Bene Gesserit. The episode in which Valya Harkonnen voices her is from an event called “Mentats of Dune”. All three books intertwine with the development of the Sisterhood, the Mentatis, the Navigators, and the Suk Doctors.
So what’s the “formula”?
I’ve read and watched a lot of fantasy/sdi-fi in my life and I think I can immediately identify a winner, whether it’s The Fifth Element, Lord of the Rings, Edge of Tomorrow, Matrix, GOT or 12 Monkeys. . I’ve seen ALL the classics – too many to mention here.
and so on
It just grabs you and you have to see more! The plot and characters are engaging, there are some delightful surprises, it feels real… I agree that some of the smaller cast aren’t that great…
A stylish production all round
and that swordMASTER is hardly that ridiculously young… but overall the series so far is touching, watchable and has a lot of suspense. The “prophecy” element is delicious, and I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next.
