I have been en avid Dune reader for quite some years and have tremendously enjoyed reading the masterpieces by Frank Herbert. I love the books enough for many re-reads over the years and every time I find new wisdoms.
As of yet I haven't tried the new books by Frank's son and that other writer. Perhaps one day I will come to that as well.
Well. Lots of stuff for me to read here so I will stay busy for a while.

This has got to be a software error right ?

I work for Macmillan Audio, the publisher of the Dune audiobooks. The cast of narrators are coming together to record "Chapterhouse Dune" this month and my company is interested to know what fans would like to see and hear from them!
This cast of narrators, including Scott Brick, Orlagh Cassidy, Euan Morton, and Simon Vance, have collaborated on all previously released classic Dune titles. You can check out clips from some of the Dune audiobooks here if you like: http://us.macmillan.com/all/editorslist ... /DuneAudio
I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on what kind of material — videos, audio clips, etc. you'd like to see produced. Also, if you have any questions for the cast, we're hoping to put together a list for them to answer for you.
I'll check this thread for responses, but if you want to send your questions directly to me, my e-mail is alexandria.shealy@macmillan.com.
Thanks for your help,
Alex

The word "candid" would have been unacceptable to Merritt, implying that anyone involved
with the HLP is not allowed to voice a negative opinion of the "new books", which is, in fact,
the truth.
