All Hail to Frank Herbert

[nampigai]

Ascension Factor I think.

[nampigai]

whoops that wasn't suposed to happen   :)

[nampigai]

It's the last of the pandora trilogi

[quoudam72]

Feyd that is I think the name of the book.

[nampigai]

well let me know if you find somewhere where you can buy the entire saga, I can't. there's also one called the jesus incodent or something. He wrote it with someone called Bill ransom, have u read any of his books and are they any good ;D

[quoudam72]

I read part of that (Jesus Incident) about 2 years ago and have neve found the book again will need to order it from the publisher to get a copy. Sometimes it's hard to get copies of some of F. Herbert's other books it may take time but you can find if you know where to look.

[nampigai]

I've found two of them on stop4u but I can't find the first d*** book

[quoudam72]

It's always like that for some reason you'll find all the books except for this one book in the series.

[nampigai]

Yea it sux, well guess I just have to keep looking I'll tell you if i find anything  ;D

[quoudam72]

Same here if I find anything before you do.

[nampigai]

The Lazarus effect should be the name  ;D

[quoudam72]

That title I have seen recently at the library that's one of the other books I could not remember by F. Herbert.

[nampigai]

It hasn't been translated, as well as nearly all the other books he wrote, so I have to buy it. The problem is that they aren't made any more  :-/

[Digital Guerrilla]

These books by Frank Herbert Ascension Factor, Lazarus Effect and Jesus Incident were they written before the Dune novels? You guys say that Ascension Factor is about a civilization that lives underwater, then what are the other two books subject matter?  

[nampigai]

It's a trilogy, I don't really know them.

[quoudam72]

Not sure if they were written before the Dune novels or not and have not read enough of the other two to tell you Sandwraith.

[nampigai]

I read that there should be a girl in them. And that she's the daughter of god. Guess Frank Herbert use alot of relegion in his novels

[quoudam72]

His son Brian Herbert also had a novel something similiar like to that also. God sends ships to Earth to transport mankind to where he is located. What about Man of Two Worlds ever read/heard of that.

[nampigai]

Nope, not yet that is. I think I'll look in to them. Thanx fed :D, by the way have the read any of Bill Ransom's books (Burn and ViraVax), and if so, are they any good?

[Guest John Teepee]

The 3 books you mentioned (Jesus Incident, Lazarus Effect, Ascension Factor) are a stand alone trilogy but they do have one 'prequel'.  It is a stand alone book titled "Destination Void".  It was written soley by Frank Herbert.  I read the series until about 1/4 of the way through Ascension Factor and then more or less lost interest.  I found this trilogy did not have the depth and driving force as I found the Dune series to have.  But read them, by all means they are entertaining.  By the way has anyone read "The God-Makers" by Frank Herbert?  Good book I recommend it.

[nampigai]

Thanx, nope I haven't heard of it.

[Ligic_Tha_Master]

Old thread!!  >:(

[quoudam72]

This is slightly off-topic we were talking about F. Herbert's other books. I tried to find that book again Ascension Factor (and the others in that trilogy) at the library but no luck has anyone seen anything on Amazon.com?

[nampigai]

I've seen them bout not new, they are second hand, and the price is to high, on those I've seen.
