Dune Rec from Previous Journal (for reference)
Fandom: Dune
Rating: Teen and Up
Characters/Pairings: Paul/Chani/Irulan
Length: 24,166

NB. Couldn't find a credit for this stunning image. It is possibly an existing Dune book cover.
What is this?: It was years since I'd read a Dune novel when I read this, so my understanding of the details of where it diverges from canon are a little hazy. It feels very true to Frank Herbert's books and his style of writing, but it pulls he focus of that original story away from Paul and places it on Irulan instead. In process it gives a far larger role (than basically that of a passive pawn) to her and, similarly, to Chani.
