This series uses material from the Great Schools of Dune trilogy by Brian Herbert and Kevin J
Two Harkonnen sisters battle forces that threaten the future of humanity and establish the legendary sect that will become known as the Bene Gesserit. Whether they’re exploring the stars, escaping dystopias, 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 Rossak Brotherhood evolved into the Bene Gesserit. The incident with Valya Harkonnen using the voice is from an incident called “Mentats of Dune.” The three books intertwine the development of the Brotherhood, the Mentats, the Navigators, and the Suk Doctors. I knew it couldn’t be as good as the movies but I didn’t expect it to be so…
No depth, conversations are kind of corny at times
mediocre. I thought for a second that this was an Amazon production, not HBO. For some roles, the casting choices are not good; not because the actors are bad but not suited to the role.
No real special effects, it feels like a low budget
There is too much going on in the first episode and it feels like they are rushing from scene to scene. Also, for some scenes, I wonder why they bothered doing them. I don’t know what camera they used, but the shots seem too simple.
