Hello.
I became a dune fan rather late in life (20 years old). Embarrassingly enough, I saw the films before I read the books.
Usually, it is the opposite for me. But unfortunately the Dune books are not so popular here in Sweden.
It is a small apology but what can i say?

When I had read the first book I was trapped. I continued to read the other Dune books
until I came upon "the others"... Talk about disappointment. After a discussion with a person who liked the new books,
I decided to get an account here among people who think like me.

there's no shame - what so ever - in starting late on Dune.

En annan svensk! Trevligt, trevligt.

I'm the exact same as you by the way, I first saw the Dune film in when I was 18, and got hooked after I saw the miniseries as well. Still working my way through the first book.

I think you'll like it here.

Anyway, welcome.:)

P.S. kom ihåg att rädsla är sinnesdödaren. :D

I have. He should be back in a few weeks. I don't think he would want you worrying about him, Eyes. He is doing fine, and I know for a fact he cannot wait to get back online here. I asked him to give me a heads up if its going to take any longer.
