Nothing by Brian is canon, you might as well tell me about something you dreamed
It is canon by definition, but the difference in content means there are three separate canons: Just Frank, Frank + Encyclopedia, Frank + Brian.
False, someone spill the water of this non believer!
The water of life, so i awaken and declare Brianian Jihad on all gatekeepers!
for real though, ugh, brian is such a bad writer...
I doubt he is writer at all, KJA is really prolific writer that does it all, and KJA is not THAT bad, only two of Extended Dune books i would scrap as "awful" and none because of writing.
Are you talking about books 7 and 8?
No, Paul of Dune and Winds of Dune. Winds are truly horrible in content, though do plug some blind spots in lore, while Paul is meh, but i absolutely abhor the "young insert hero name adventures" prequel genre and it is exactly that.
Btw even Brian and KJA apparently agrees since Paul and Winds were two books of planned trilogy, but after not stellar reviews third book was put on revision for years.
If those are that much worse than 7 and 8 I can hardly imagine
