Hey, nice to see a Dune-fan around. I stopped off at the bookstore on the way home and, uh, read "The Butlerian Jihad". It was pretty good, have you read it yet? Rooting for a Harkonnen took some getting used to, but a lot of it was quite cool, IMO. And of course starting off with a line about call Salus Secundus a verdant gem of a world is a great way to catch my attention.

I just finished The Butlerian Jihad the other night! Yeah, it was a twist of faith to have a Harkonnen as the protagonist and an Atreides as the antagonist. Now, I'll have to wait a year for the next book and a few months for the miniseries sequel. Luckily, there is the LOTR special edition coming out next month, then the Twin Towers in December! It's rough being a person with no patience.
