New Dune Concept.

I have an idea. I need to see how many people know or have seen/read Dune.

Well, I've read the series through God Emperor, and I think I saw the movie on TV once, so you've got one. :) I'm also a very very big fan. The original Dune is one of my favorite books of all time.

you just made yourself one of my favorite people... though I only read the first book. Majority of the people told me it progressively diminished...

Hmm, it depends on what you like. I agree that the first of them is the best, but the series on a whole is still very interesting. I'd recommend at least Dune Messiah, because it continues the story of Paul, and approaches the first in quality. The next two, Children of Dune and God Emperor of Dune... are different. That's the best way to describe them. They focus on Paul's children and descendants, and it's simply a different story. Children, at least, is still very good, though. If you get through Messiah, I'd recommend Children.

Also interested, having read the book of course. Though, I really want to see what you had in mind.
