"After the events of Hellhole Awakening, the people of Hellhole and the shadow-Xayans scramble to rally against the threat from the still-living rogue Xayans. Back on Sonjeera, the Monarchy is in an uproar after their surprising defeat and the breakaway of the Deep Zone planets. But after touring Hellhole, Queen Michella is shaken, and begins to realize that she can never have the old Monarchy back. Before the Queen can return to Sonjeera, she's captured by the rogue Xayans and learns the reason for their attack: the orthodox Xayans had developed their minds to the point where they could evolve and, in so doing, trigger another Big Bang, wiping out everything. Now, twenty-two huge asteroids from the outer reaches of the solar system are bearing towards Hellhole, summoned by the rogue sect as a last resort. Can all these lives and the planet itself be saved?" --… (meer)
Obligated to read this to finish the trilogy I started, this was the weakest of the three in this trilogy, but overall the trilogy was enjoyable. Pales in comparison to the Dune tales, but if one had never read any Dune, this would hold up pretty well as a science fiction trilogy. As I got into this one, I found the writing somewhat clunky, and I found it hard to get into some of the characters. Personally, I hope Herbert/Anderson really have finished this set of tales and focus again on more Dune stories. ( )
