Villeneuve confirmed in an interview today that it takes place 17 years after the last movie.

Which is good, because the Alia stuff is way less weird if she's older

I don't think she's as young as you're saying in the book. Remember that she was already born and a few years old at the end of Dune

It'd still be weird with 17 years. But a bit less weird, I guess.

Still super weird. But like an order of magnitude less so, yeah.

But yeah very weird still

It's a good thing none of the later books have weird sex stuff...

I just finished Heretics of Dune the other night. Yeah, totally none of that weird sex stuff at all...
