Irulan and Chani, Two Years Before DUNE | Princess of Dune Book Review

It's our first DUNE TALK of 2024! We're exploring the lives of Irulan and Chani, key characters in the forthcoming 'Dune: Part Two' movie. What challenges did Imperial princess and young Fremen warrior face, two years before House Atreides arrived on Arrakis? 'Princess of Dune', a recent prequel novel, answers that question. Marcus and Mark are joined by Rachel, for today's lively book review discussion. And as bonus content, we've got Spacing Guild cosplay and lore!
