I think Brian Herbert will never live up to his fathers standards, however I am pleased to see the Dune saga continue. Hunters of Dune the sequel to Chapterhouse is due for release latter this year and I am very hopeful as to it’s content. I think KJA is the one who is most to blame for the drop in standards he just doesn’t meet the grade.

Assistance request. I can’t remember the location of my very favorite paragraph in the Dune series. The last sand worm in the universe is in the hold of a ship. Someone looks down at it and says something like “we have your language now. It is not a language that can be translated, you can only speak it, and it changes as you do so.”
Can someone help?
Thanks

Thanks, now I have two more books to buy. I was afraid I’d have to buy a book I already had to read them, but this is actually good. Amazon, here I come.

It is the soft cover for The Legends of Dune Volume 3: The Battle of Corrin, that was just released in the US a week ago. It contains an unpublished chapter from the first Dune book in which Lato is lecturing Paul about the politics of the Dune universe. There is also the original opening summary for Dune Messiah. These are both part of the Road to Dune book which I think will be my next read. That or Dreamer of Dune – the Frank Herbert biography.

I couldn’t agree more. Good reads all of them, but not on the same level as the originals. I am curios though, I own hardcover editions of all except House Atreides & House Harkonnen and the chapters penned by Frank Herbert are not there. What edition have you been reading?
