Re: [MBZ] Dune
I found it only really begins to make sense after you get through God Emperor, as that tome lays out all the missing background of how the worms work. Dune is pretty much a comment on Iran/Iraq and big oil from 1919-1965 and exploitation by the west. The next books in the series delve into the mystical nature, with God Emperor and the next two trying to tie it up in a neat bow. The Brian Herbert books REALLY delve into the nuts and bolt and expand the universe filling in nooks and crannies you can only guess at their import in his father’s writing. clay I have no pronouns please do not refer to me. > On Nov 2, 2021, at 7:14 PM, Karl Wittnebel via Mercedes > wrote: > > I think I will have to read the book now.

Don't forget "Destination Moon". I loved Starship Troopers, both the books and the movie. Imagine my surprise when reading "Grumbles from the Grave" to find that RAH hated the book. Thought it was his weakest work to date. I guess that says something about the quality of his work in general. Friday is one of my favorite RAH works... -Curt On Tuesday, November 2, 2021, 09:47:25 PM EDT, mitch--- via Mercedes wrote: They filmed Heinlein's Starship Troopers and Puppet Masters.
