In my very humble opinion, you didn't miss much. A million years ago
here in rasfw, I mentioned Heretics of Dune (aka My Own Private Duncan
Idaho) as the worst SFF "turkey" I had finished reading. For the life of
me, I don't know why I then went on to read Chapterhouse: Dune, but I
did, and it was not much better. At this remove, I don't remember a
whole lot of either one - my sense is that they weren't "throw at the
wall" bad, but they were really disappointing.

Is that one of those "Dune" books written by Herbert's son and a ghost
writer?
No - Or at least, Frank Herbert passed away in 1986, and Heretics of Dune & Chapterhouse: Dune were published in 1984 & 1985 respectively. Chapterhouse was the last Dune novel I ever read - and it is very likely to remain so.
