I am relieved to read you have survived this ordeal ... and OMG :shock: is the only suitable response after reading your synopses. I will never ever read this crap!

I agree. Soooo sweet it makes you sick:
Scytale had used the cells in his nullentropy capsule to regrow gholas of the last Tleilaxu Council, and now the little ones followed him everywhere, reminding her of a mother duck trailed by ducklings.

I have to state that I have never read further than House Atreides and a few chapters in House Harkonnen. Even this much was enough to convert me to a lifelong hazard to BH, should he ever be in the vicinity.

The only brush I had with double dose of "Dune 7" BH/KJA style was when I was perusing the sandworm article on Wikipedia in order to see information collated in one place. This lead me to read the Leto II article and, like a train, I failed to see where the tracks terminated and ran on into the BH/KJA Leto II section! Like suddenly discovering that one's fruit smoothie had started siphoning raw sewage into the gullet, it was only by dint of sheer effort one didn't choke and die.

A few points which brought me close to death were:


- "Even at a very young age, Leto shows signs that he may be more than he seems. During an assassination attempt, he somehow transforms into a small sandworm and defends himself before reverting to an innocent one-year-old."

- "The largest of the seven sandworms, Monarch, allows Leto to jump down its gullet to bond with it."

- "All seven worms fuse together into one massive worm, and the God Emperor returns once again to a deep sleep within the planet's surface."


Words can't describe the fountain of shit that were the prequels, and it is probably beyond human experience to actualise a manifestation of negativity that does justice to the sequels.

The only possible explanation is that this is the most brilliant marketing campaign ever for original Dune (+ encyclopedia), combined with a tahaddi-challenge for Dune fans. Those that unthinkingly fall for the *quels are shown as the shallow mindless sligs that they are. Those that wade through the dung to find the pearls (and there is so much dung now, with promises of fresh deluges to come) are redeemed.

Additionally, it would have been impossible for me to appreciate further the pinnacles that are the originals, without their alter egos from the bowels of mediocrity that masquerade as Dune.

How else to explain these signal "achievements" without losing one's sense? [/i]

There's a relevant quote from Laozi to throw in here, but I can't be bothered looking it up. ;)

I envy you your unsullied state. ;)
