Daniel and Marty
I think I’ve read a suggestion that the Face Dancers Daniel and Marty represent Frank Herbert and his wife. However, their actions and their self-understanding as portrayed in their conversation suggest that they represent the readers. Certainly I didn’t let the big mentat get away; I wanted to gather in his persona fully and make it another one of my own.

Daniel and Marty, as characters, are manifestations of the computer minds from the Butlerian Jihad, not Face Dancers.

In interpreting Frank Herbert’s Dune series, I avoid relying on anything other than the six books Frank Herbert himself wrote.
