"On a scale of 1 to 10 how much do you want to be dune-splained about this?"
Lol, exactly. And I know the answer is 1.5,
You inspired me to take a crack at the books. I've read the original countless times but never continued on, so I'm going to start with the Frank Herbert series and then see how I feel before venturing into his son's work...
Fwiw, the son's books are universally considered to be terrible
I have never understood that. I thoroughly enjoyed them.
Interesting! Maybe they'll be OC's cup of tea too.
Nice! I went cold turkey before reading the son's work.
I'll just say that it gets weird and there are plans within plans.
