I loved "The Way"!

Also a big Dune fan. I have a question, in fact: do other Dune fans agree that Frank Herbert's son's prequels feel incongruous with the original books? I have not read all of them, but the few I have read left me feeling like the world he described doesn't seem like a world that could ever have given birth to the Dune universe.
