About
Abu and Leo continue their read-through of Chapterhouse: Dune with chapters 37 -39. Odrade says her goodbyes, the mission to Junction begins, and a beloved cyborg bus driver makes a triumphant return. Then the takeaway digs into the leveling drift, the Bene Gesserit belief that humanity always sands its outliers back down toward the average.
