    This is wrong. The novel is heavily influenced by the book The Sabres of Paradise which is a biography of a muslim leader that united the Caucasian tribes to resist Russian colonialism in the early 1900s, and there is a wide range of themes and influences that Herbert and his son have talked about. Recency bias is making your analysis overly simplistic.
