Not really as good as Dune plot-wise, but content-wise it's much better, I guess. Once again, I really like the headiness of this book compared to other science fiction I've read and it oddly pairs well with 1984. The bombing scene was very stunning and good. It was a good use of the blind prophet trope and posited a good "explanation" for why that sort of thing would work. The prophet has already seen the future so well he is able to walk through the present without seeing because he has and can already see the vision of the future and superimpose it.
