RE: A Dune Navigator Folding Space

Thanks for the tip, I was under the same impression myself but it is good to hear it from a big fan as well! It is the same more or less with Tolkien and his successors... People wanting to capitalize on the success of a book/film/etc ultimately burn it out with low quality standards.

That's true. That's why some writers expressively forbid others to write books set in their universes (I'm thinking of Zelazny's Amber). I think that Brian just wanted to keep his father's legacy alive, though, and I still haven't read the two books that conclude the saga (hunters and sandworms, if I recall correctly) which should be based on his father's notes, and therefore should contain interesting elements. If you're planning on reading the 6 original books you might want to try and see how it all ends :)
