Its all so clear now......now all those German gunners are able to consistantly score first shot/first kill hits on me even after they've moved. Thats not desert sand swirling around their tanks its SPICE Spice aided gunners......the truth behind the Panzer proficiency

Heretics of Dune
Chapter House Dune These 6 by Frank Herbert Hopefully Brian&Kevin will write a 10:th, final, novel that takes up where Chapter House Dune left off

Many thanks, will try to find these books. I read until the same point the movie ends. Is that "The Cildren of Dune" or just "Dune"?

Aww come on, so what if Lynch butchered the story. At least the atmosphere had an appropriate level of gravity to it. Much better than Sci-fi channels hack acting fiasco with Sardaukar looking like ninja cooks. Granted, all I'm saying is that the movie isn't that bad. I read all the prequels recently, and they were a lot of fun. However, I wouldn't say they are up to the standards of the original Dune series of books. Herbert was one of the best sci-fi authors EVER, it's natural that the prequels aren't as good. Luckily for us they draw on one of the best, most comprehensive universes ever devised. If they actually have the notes for dune7 then I'm so on board for whatever they write. I am not, however, expecting it to be the masterpiece that it would have been had Herbert done it himself.
