Re: Paul and Lord Valentin
I never read the short but I did like the book. Never even realized it was co-re-written. 

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

Re: Paul and Lord Valentin
yeah I should have been more precise but then I forgot/didn't know it was a short before, and I don't like to claim beforehand knowledge when I just read it on wiki or suchTheDukester wrote:This isn't exactly accurate. It's originally a very famous short story written by Asimov — arguably his best-known shorter work — that was later (much later) substantially re-written into novel length with collaboration from Robert Silverberg.lotek wrote:wasn't nightfall co written?
(Who should be writing nuDune novels, although that's a different subject ...)

The first two "reviews" for this POS are from Byron Merritt. So, in addition to being a complete sell-out and a pussy, Byron is also a shill. That's quite a trifecta.
These HLP people have no shame at all. None.
Whose ass doesn't he kiss?Luckily, I was able to thanks to Amazon.com and I read it this fall.

I liked "telepathy virus," too. What an amazing HACK he is.

And Byron's review sounds more like brown nosing again...
anyway who cares as long as they stay away from dune...

Maybe the reviews on amazon should have their own truthsayer
