Welcome, Crizius! I see that the Dune demotivators on this board have a great success 
Soon you will be stormed by other users' welcome messages (many of them live on the other side of the planet with respect to the ours, I still have to get used to this asynchrony).
May Shai-Hulud Clear the Path Before You.

Paul of Dune was so bad it gave me a seizure that dislocated both of my shoulders and prolapsed my anus.

Welcome! God Emperor is a tough read for some people the first time through, just take it slowly and let it sink in.

Be cool to get a copy in your language.
Anyway, hope your enjoying GodEmperor, is my favorite.
