DRINKLong story short, a fellow unemployed bum bought a copy of the Dune trilogy (all three books in one volume!) from the charity shop he is placed at, and on taking it home realised he already had the exact same volume. So he lent it to us. And now I'm reading it.
I've been after the book for many, many years, but never had the chance to read it! I'd only managed to see the first film.
Anyhow, the books are fabulous! I'm so grateful. I've had it a week tomorrow, and am more than halfway through the volume! heart
Who else loves Dune? Did you read the book(s) before seeing the film(s)? Did you feel pissed that they molested the story for the first film? Isn't the story uber? Don't you feel sorry for Maud'Dib having to go ahead with his jihad despite his wishes to the contrary? Aren't political intrigues desparaging? Do you wish I'd shut up?
And for your pleasure, here's a picture of Feyd-Rautha during the fight with Paul Maud'Dib.
ZURG!
