“Polish comes from the cities; wisdom from the desert.”
“…Frank’s son Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson have written a total of 15 Dune-related novels and managed to not add a single word of value to the original series. From trying to interconnect every single character, timelines be damned, to ignoring even the most basic continuity, these novels are an affront to Frank Herbert’s memory and an utter disappointment to his fans.”
“He who controls the Spice, controls the universe!”

“Giving a prize to a novel is, in effect, trying to second-guess posterity. If I say ‘this book is great’ I may be talking about my idiosyncratic taste. If I say ‘Dune is a classic of postwar American SF’ I’m not. Indeed, if we look at the result of the 1966 Hugo — joint winners Frank Herbert’s Dune and Roger Zelazny’s …And Call Me Conrad, it is no disparagement of Zelazny (a very interesting writer, who has written several enduring novels) to say: one of those books has been endorsed by posterity in a way that the other hasn’t. And this is the nub of my point: what matters about an award is not how it arrives at its decision. What matters is the extent to which its decision is posterity-proof.”
This is the best Dune Artwork i have ever seen. THIS IS BRILLIANCE

He was warrior and mystic, ogre and saint, the fox and the innocent, chivalrous, ruthless, less than a god, more than a man. There is no measuring Muad’Dib’s motives by ordinary standards…We speak now of the Muad’Dib who ordered battle drums made from his enemies’ skins, the Muad’Dib who denied the conventions of his ducal past with a wave of the hand, saying merely: “I am the Kwisatz Haderach. That is reason enough.”
“The beautiful 11 x 15 inch watercolor painting by John Schoenherr, used for the ACE paperback first edition of Dune, just sold for a little over $26,000 at Heritage Auction Galleries, shattering the $10,000 to $15,000 pre-auction estimate.”

“Crafted from a 2-foot-long gummy worm, Haribo gummy bears, black licorice string, yellow sprinkles, and rock candy crystals! A scene from the great science fiction novel Dune by Frank Herbert. Here we see the giant gummy worm on the desert planet of Arrakis. Ridden by the powerful gummy bear Paul Atreides as he seeks to control the prescious “spice” melange, which gives those who ingest it extended life and some prescient awareness. Muad’Dib!”
