Too much time on your hands obviously ade! Stranger in a strange land was
about the only one I found worth reading and that was an effort. lol

LOL - stop it!

That Lynch film is, erm, fine if you have the book to hand! Sting inevitably
makes my skin crawl - classic case of pointless 'star' casting moment. I got
a copy of Dune simply because I wasn't quite sure what was going on in the
film, but it piqued my interest. Then became obsessed. Got all the Herbert
books I know of.

I tend to be into the cream of each crop, so what little sci-fi I *do* like
tends to be toppest in that genre. I'm also big on influences - who started
what, etc. It becomes like some sort of investigative learning fest until I
get bored. I recently got into Napalm Death & listened to them non-stop (I
mean that) for about 6 months. Yes, mental !

Oh God. Any Star Wars or ST-TNG fans on the list too?!?

Actually, I rate the first Dune, although I like the National Lampoon
piss-take more - Paul has to complete a Rubiks Cube at the beginning. As a
Lynch fan, I even sort of like the film, although Sting's Flying-V
underpants take some getting used to.

Yeah, Shaitan, Shai Hulud, The Maker, etc, etc. Shit man, dunno why I
was so *sure* about that then. I think it's the Fremen pronounciation
of Jihad that has a 'sh' at the start. I'm literally embarrassed I got
it wrong!!!

Went through all six again a few years ago - amazing how a decade can
change you enough that you see totally different things in the books.
When I was 17 I was more interested in the hero-dom of Paul, whereas
my most recent read of them had me focusing on the whole philosophical
journey that Herbert was on whilst writing them.

There's a lot to learn from those books !
