### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Excellent generational sci-fi
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2017*

Somehow I ended up reading the second book of this set(The Lazarus Effect) by itself when I was in high school, and it was one of my favorites as a standalone sci-fi adventure. Aftwerwards I moved on to the Dune series and loved each entry, and now I have the benefit of seeing the scope of Herbert's ideas and the context of that one adventure set in its proper order.I recommend picking up Destination: Void, as it sets up the Pandora Sequence with some of the characters and plotlines carrying over or being referenced. It's also a damn good read that makes you think about what constitutes sentience. Going into The Jesus Incident(first in this set), it's very clear what kind of havoc the characters of Destination: Void have unleashed, and it's a harrowing story about how humanity destroys the one planet that can support them out of ignorance, greed, and defiance of their deity. Moving forward to The Lazarus Effect, it has been generations since, and the world of Pandora has evolved in a way that divides humanity. It tackles issues of race, class, and the misinterpretation of scripture (notably in one chapter that I found hilarious and ironic if the situation were applied to real religions here). It also has an action-filled plotline that sells the stakes on a personal level as the characters muse on what the situations mean to them.I've seen other reviews of the last book, The Ascension Factor, and I have to agree that it doesn't quite live up to the rest of the series, particularly since it was finished after Frank Herbert's death. It goes in a direction that I feel wasn't quite right for the preceding stories, and I'm personally disappointed at how it handles references to the previous books' characters. Nonetheless, it is still decent sci-fi that inhabits that same incredibly fleshed-out world and continues the trend of telling the story from the perspective of a later generation.Overall as a collection, The Pandora Sequence is a fantastic read, though I do caution that it is hefty in word count and the ideas presented on the pages. I honestly wish that it garners a following much like the Dune series.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Wonderfully intricate and literate
  

*by G***H on Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2018*

A wonderfully intricate, literate trilogy that imagines an alternative planet for humanity and an expanded appreciation for what is human being, as well as what is sentient life and the connections between the two.  Even now, 30 years after I first read it, the Pandora sequence inspires hope for struggling humanity and the difference that each person can make.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Read this.
  

*by P***Y on Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2014*

Read these books a while back because the title of the first book(the Jesus incident) caught my eye. This is now one of my favorite series. I might also recommend reading Destination: Void first or after (I read it after and still thoroughly enjoyed  it). This is an excellent series an  I hope someday it can be made into a series similar to game of thrones or 3-4 epic movies. Either way I strongly recommend this series  to all sci-fi fans.
