The situation Frank Herbert and Bill Ransom have created in The Jesus Incident does have the same kind of mythological/religious underpinnings. And, while the characters are motivated and caught up in by the same kind of mystical religiosity that saturates the Dune universe, they just don't ever transcend that human, yet more-than-human threshhold. Chapter after chapter I kept waiting for that Dunish awesomeness, but alas, it seemed as though the story and characters just kept falling short and just sort of hung - almost there, but just not quite.
While it's not Dune (and I mean the entire Dune cycle), it's certainly worth a read.
