The problem with the Brian Herbert Dune books is not that they are campy Space Opera bullshit. So are the originals.
The problem is that Brian Herbert does not have a raging, all-consuming fetish for questions like "What if our experience of existence was only half-conscious, and a fuller form of wakefulness exists?" which puts the campy bullshit in the shade.
