nampigai Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 Hello all Dune fans. I've just registert. I'm looking forward gathering more information on Dune, and discussing all kinds of subjects with u guys. This is the best Dune site ever made. :D oh by the way does anyone have any information on hause Harkonnen?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 You'll have to be more specific. No one is going to post a 10,000 word thesis on the entirety of the Harkonnen. - What specifically are you looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nampigai Posted November 23, 2001 Author Share Posted November 23, 2001 Ofcourse. I'm looking for House History, like how long does it date back, and what prominent leaders have ruled house harkonnen. Have house Atreides and Harkonnen always been at each others throats. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 They have been enemies since the battle of Corrin, in the times of the Butl. Jihad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suboid-worker Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 The fued started after the battle of Corrin when an ancestor of House Harkkonen became a coward and almost lost the war, if it were not for the Atreidies to the resuce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nampigai Posted November 24, 2001 Author Share Posted November 24, 2001 I knew that :). but thanks anyway. I gues I'll have to wait and see what really happened at the battle of corrin, when the Butlerian Jihad is published ;D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quoudam72 Posted December 18, 2001 Share Posted December 18, 2001 Be warned Feyd F.Herbert's other books are not related to Dune don't expect them to have the same feeling as Dune. His other books are great sci-fic, just not the atmosphere as the Duniverse. Other than that you should enjoy them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nampigai Posted December 18, 2001 Author Share Posted December 18, 2001 OK Thanx. The fact that they aren't dune related is the only reason I haven't bought them yet. Still thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ordos45 Posted December 18, 2001 Share Posted December 18, 2001 Feyd, overkill is all I'm gonna say. Not even a full month and already 240 posts! Anyhow I like to write fanfiction, there was a Dune one I was working on but I lost it somewhere, it was set after Chapterhouse and after the "Sheeana Incident". Also, when you say to hail frank Herbert, do you realise how sexual his books are? Let me give some examples, Tau Spice Orgies, Leto saying he could have any sexual expierience in history in his mind, the bene Gesserit (I really need not elaborate), The Honored Matres (unless you haven't read Heretics of Dune and Chapterhouse I won't have to elaborate), etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nampigai Posted December 18, 2001 Author Share Posted December 18, 2001 Yea I know, he had a tremendous thing about sex. About the posts, I'm taking a month of from anything called work or school, so I have alot of time on my hands and this is what I spend most of it on. ;D. To bad about the fan fiction thingy I would like to have read it. I'm looking on the 'raad for similar stuff. damn I'm tired tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EchnaDarr Posted December 19, 2001 Share Posted December 19, 2001 Back to the Sex-part. The Mini-serie, on DVD, contains a fairly high level of sex. Many Paul-Chani scenes, but also "feyd combined with mistresses" scenes.Is there any information whether this use of Sex will continue in the Children miniseries?
