I enjoyed the breakdown very much. The Bene Gesseret create their own problems. The was ALWAYS a chance for disobedience within the Sisterhood. Prophecy knows that. Yes, Valya is quick on her feet, but she should recognize the law of averages will create/contain "outliers," as you excellently phrase it. Jessica was The Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohyam's "greatest student." That sort of brilliance should have aroused suspicion from the start. They (the Reverend Mothers Superior) SHOULD have created a "fail safe" -- a way to end a rogue Sister if necessary. Valya certainly would have. I like the ties with the movies. Since I only read the Canon, I have no idea how Prophecy works, BUT the fact a lot of this evil manipulation is being driven by a Harkkonen tells me a great deal. Can't wait for Messiah!
Tom, just out of curiosity (because I had to give up arguing what is and isn't canon for my blood pressure's sake) are you saying you don't consider the Brian Herbert/Kevin Anderson output legit? I don't hate them personally, but I don't think they're up to the level of Frank Herbert's six books. JAMES
Hope HBO pays for more seasons, great show
