Mar 29, 2008 - I know! Doesn't help that Brian and Kevin don't plan to stop writing more and more Dune Books. btw, halfway through Children of Dune right now.

Apr 3, 2008 - Nice tribute, but the sandworms are not native to Arrakis. The books never specify where they came from, but they do hint that Dune was a watery planet eons before the first book took place, which means the sandtrout must have been brought there.

Apr 14, 2008 - Kevin and Brians' novels are pieces of shit that are poorly written and diverge from Frank's novels. They're basically just average shoot em up scifi books.

Apr 16, 2008 - Great books I read all six.

Apr 29, 2008 - I am reading Dune Messiah, having been blown away by the film (watched it on two seperate occasions within two days). Herbert's style is very hard to grapple initially, but his work is UTTERLY compelling.

May 2, 2008 - Brian and Kevin have actually ended the story in book "Sandworm of Dune"(well,the story has ended and if they still write more......)

May 2, 2008 - I remember reading Dune as an 18 year old. The water of life always struck me as a derivative of weed. I believe that God-conciousness was speaking through him when he wrote this epic tale. We are one. Let the games begin! Enjoy the drama! Because that's what God wants to do!

Jun 12, 2008 - Dune was an awesome book. My favourite sci fi setting. I found Dune Messiah quite a chore to get to grips with though but i enjoyed the children of dune book.

Aug 3, 2008 - The music is a big mismatch with theme of Dune series.

rotedrachen Says:

Aug 16, 2008 - ALTER!!! THE MUSIC WRECKED IT!!!

Aug 19, 2008 - I find Dunes Messiah do be a master piece, along with God Emperor of Dune.

BVargas78 Says:

Aug 19, 2008 - havent got round to reading emperor yet, but i do own a copy. I might give Messiah another go, but it didnt flow as well as the first book. That said it was 10 years ago i read it and i may well prefer it second time round!

tiby2403 Says:

Aug 19, 2008 - I think I read the entire series about 5 times. I first didnt prefer Messiah, but when i read it second time, it seemed more... political, more philosophical. You see the real MuadDib in Dunes Messiah.

Sep 4, 2008 - i found the new series by Brian Herbert pretty horrible. The first three were interesting, the next three were awful, and the final three were unreadable

tiby2403 Says:

Sep 4, 2008 - he made 9 books ? thats horible in itself what about ?... did he continue the original series, or did he make books about stuff in the Dune series ?

PlanetoftheAtheists Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - They wouldnt be worth shedding my crysknife over!

PlanetoftheAtheists Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - No, Frank made six books. The first three were works of art, the next three not so much(in my opinion) He died in 1987. His son and another author claimed to have found transcripts, story lines and alternative endings to his novels in his safe, or attic...and began to write a new series in 1999. They arent worth reading and are, again, my opinion, a bit exploitive and needlessly gross, some feel like they were written in a single day

tiby2403 Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - i was refering to hiskid and the other guy when i asked if he made 9 books. I like Franks 4th book in the series. gets a bit boring at one time...but the sheer amount of inteligence that Leto the 2nd has... just astonishes me. A lotof knowledge and thinking went into that book. I think more than in the others. but it doesnt matter. you like what you like, and i cant change that. well, im glad i havent read those 9 books then... exploitive, definitly. didnt frank leave his kid an inheritance ?

PlanetoftheAtheists Says:

Sep 7, 2008 - sorry, i misread your original post.... I went out and bought God Emperor, and will give it another reading. Its been so long since i last read it, who knows what i will get out of it this time.

Sep 10, 2008 - 1:38 always gives me the far future fell, of the year 10,191.

EmperorofFatalism Says:

Sep 10, 2008 - If you don't like the newer ones, then you shouldent like any of them.

Sep 13, 2008 - May thy knife chip and shatter.

dickfromdarlo Says:

Nov 16, 2008 - Ive enjoyed all the books, expect Paul of Dune...man that was shit.
