How should I read the #Dune series?

#books #scifi #FrankHerbert

HOW SHOULD I READ THE DUNE SERIES? Greetings, friend. Looks like you're wondering how exactly you should tackle one of the most revered sci-fi series of all time. This guide should clear things up. OPTION 1: The Sampler You keep hearing about how great this ‘Dune’ thing is, you're vaguely aware David Lynch made a movie out of it. You've heard the Litany Against Fear. You're probably turned off by sci-fi, but you'll give this one a chance. OPTION 2: Muad’Dib’s Story So you've just finished Dune and you enjoyed it. Or you at least like Paul as a character and you wanna see how that plays out. Luckily Messiah exists, and it's damn short. You can consider it a ‘Book 4’, an epilogue to the events of Dune. OPTION 3: The Golden Path There is no reason to actually read Children of Dune unless you're gearing up for The Big One: God Emperor. Widely considered almost as good as Dune (and many would say even better, making it the true masterpiece of the series), anyone with a high tolerance for weird shit should go this route. OPTION 4: I Love Frank Herbert It's clear you're really into Dune at this point. You know the quality drops off fairly significantly after God Emperor, right? I mean, it's still written by Frank, so it’s not too bad. Above-average. They aren’t going to make you question the entire series’ quality retroactively, or anything. OPTION 5: I Love Dune, But Clearly Don’t Respect Frank Please, for the love of the God Emperor, don’t do this. These are utter trash.

I learned that the artist behind the artwork for the game Elite was none other than Philip Castle, the designer of the posters for A Clockwork Orange and Full Metal Jacket, among others.

He passed away on February 20, 2026, at the age of 83 🙏

Silent Sunday 💫

#art #mastoart #fediart #fantasy #scifi #speedpaint #krita #silentSunday #digitalArt #noai

We are on an alien planet. A psychedelic sun in the far distance catches our attention. Cities are aligned to the sunbeams, reaching far into the distance. Giant stone statues are worshipping the sun. On the left, they are holding planets with different colorations from blue to yellow. On the right, the statues have empty hands. Do they take turns with this precious responsibility? The clouds follow the sun, and stars shine brightly. https://www.deviantart.com/sylviaritter/art/Speedpainting-01122025-1270235963

The announcement out of AwesomeCon has come.

Nathan Fillion and Crew Reunite for ‘Firefly’ Animated Series

thetvcave.com/post/firefly-ani…

"Grab your brown coats and a very expensive bottle of Mudder’s Milk, because the impossible just happened. After two decades of "maybe next year" and enough fan petitions to paper the entire Verse, Nathan Fillion has finally stopped teasing us on Instagram and dropped the big one: a Firefly animated series is officially in advanced development."

The series takes place between the original TV series and Serenity, the film.
