I can't beleive I missed out on this entire conversation! I am so upset with myself. I would love to add something to it, but A. and Idaho have covered most of my thoughts, as I stand in the middle.

The no-ship during the house trilogy sucked. Going back to IDAHO's discussion w/Crysknife, they did totally botch that assignment, but I do have to side with IDAHO. I am grateful to have more Dune novels to look forward to and to read. Maybe some of it is fan fiction, but who cares? I'm interested in learning everything that I can about Franks future. I can't understand why someone else would not who was a fan of the origional. Maybe the writing is a little third grade, but it's still a book, still teaching, still living in F.'s wonderful world. It's good enough for me. I know everyone doesn't share that opinion, but they don't have to. I don't understand why they have to rain on my parade.

Even if the new books aren't aren't exactly what F. wanted them to be, I would prefer not to know that. I would like to tell myself that they are somewhat in his image. I am a little more confident that 7 & 8 are his, making the next reading experience all the more enjoyable. And I really think that if there were no notes, I wouldn't really want to know anyways. I would rather believe, despite the truth.
