 dragonsworn [book review] - House Corrino, Brian Herbert & Kevin J. Anderson   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Emperor Shaddam Corrino IV is growing increasingly restless at his lack of absolute power.
As with the earlier novels, 'House Corrino' is devoid of any real character development, making it difficult for the reader to establish any emotional connections with any of the protagonists, or even antagonists for that matter.
Emperor Shaddam is especially two-dimensional, and his actions towards the end of the book defy any sense of rational explanation, except out necessity to bring the book into concordance with the original 'Dune'.

On the political level Dune is the tale of a political conflict between three noble houses--the House Atreides, the House Harkonnen and the House Corrino.
Secondly, the House Atreides is in a position where it could potentially undermine the fundamental source of Corrino power: The Corrinos' power base is their military strength, their specially trained army--the " Sardaukar "--who per soldier are five to ten times better fighters than the military forces of the other noble houses.
The Corrinos have not ruled the Imperium for so long by ignoring such potential threats to their power base.

 House Corrino - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Corrinos came to power after mankind's victory against the Thinking Machines at the Battle of Corrin (from which they took their name), and ruled until deposed by Paul Atreides approximately 10,000 years later.
The resulting harsh conditions on Salusa Secundus encouraged the survival of the strong, and allowed the Corrinos to develop the universe's most-feared military units, the warrior-fanatic Sardaukar, the means by which House Corrino controlled the Empire.
The proposed return to glory for the House Corrino did not succeed, and Paul's heirs Leto Atreides II and his twin sister Ghanima rose to power at the death of the Regent, Paul's sister Alia.

House Corrino solidifies many of the plotlines leading up to Dune, including the circumstances surrounding the birth of Paul Atreides AKA Paul Muad’dib, the transfer of the planet Arrakis from the Harkonnens to the Atreides, and many of the underlying interpersonal conflicts.
While all of this is going on, Baron Harkonnen is trying to gain power by stockpiling mélange on Dune, and a long lost heir to the Emperor’s throne tries to claim his rightful place.
If House Corrino is any indication of their collaborative efforts and story-telling abilities, I eagerly await this new installation.

Shaddam is obsessed with the amal project - the artificial spice that will give him economic and political control over the whole known universe.
