  Does anyone have some information on any books after the fourth
DUNE book entitled "God Emperor of Dune".  I just read through
all four books and am breaking out in hives waiting to see how
the next one will be.

Later much...

heretics of dune came out last year.  you will want to get it if you
simply MUST have all the dune books.  as far as a book goes, it's
neither here nor there.  so why did i buy the hardcover edition?
good question.  it wasn't really worth it.

"Heretics of Dune" should be out in paperback shortly.
There is a sixth book in the works, I forget the title.

I just wanted to let it be known that "Heritics of Dune" is out in
paperback.  I spotted them on March 5.  I can't say anything about
the book yet, but I'm sure it will probably be the worst of the five.
(going downhill all the time)  I would be glad if there were no more
Dune books comeing since I hate hereing reviews of a new hardback
since none of my friends are fool enough to buy the thing.

The fifth book is entitled "Heretics of Dune". I just saw an ad that it's
now available in paperback.  I haven't read it, though...I'm waiting for
the SF Book Club to offer it.

*** REPLACE THIS SANDWORM WITH YOUR MESSIAH ***

OK I confess.  I read Dune *many* years ago and liked it very much.  I
have read none of the sequels until recently.  I started the second book
and thought it stunk.  However, I have read "Heretics of Dune".  It 
wasn't bad at all.   In fact, I liked it.  Not great literature, and
a little confusing, but a nice story. (I didn't buy the hardback.  I
borrowed it.)
