Thanks everyone! FYI I do consider the new novels by Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson Dune canon. I just know that some don't and didn't want to get into a debate. As BH and KA say at the end of Sandworms of Dune, there is plenty of room for every view.

I know some people don't consider the books by Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson canon-and I'm not going to get into a debate here. . . My question is this, the official time line says Shaddam died before Leto and Ghanima were born, so why is he alive in the most recent Winds of Dune? Or does the date in the wiki refer to his reign periods?
