Have you read the Dune Encyclopedia?

[Andrew]

Been a while since a Dune poll.

So, who has read the Dune Encyclopedia?

Do you plan on reading it?

Did you enjoy it?

It's been a while since I read it, and I think I borrowed it at local library. I found it interesting.

[Dragoon Knight]

I own it.  Dante got me a copy for my birthday a couple of years back.  I haven't read as much of it as I should have, but it's nice to know I have it. :)

[Dante]

Cover to cover and a lot of research.

Take that, prequels!

[Vanguard3000]

Bought it.  Read it.  Loved it for more than any/all of the prequels.  The Ampoliros entry was especially interesting, along with the account of the various Duncans serving the God Emperor.

[Omphalos]

Read it a few times, actually. 

[TMA_1]

wonderful stuff

[Egeides]

I've read parts vertically. Shame on me.

[Emperor Harkonnen]

Also just read parts of it, didn't feel like reading 500 pages on a screen with my online version. ;)

[Dunenewt]

I've read it quite a few times now, each time I discover more and more.  Interesting stuff, if a little strange at times.

[Hypatia]

I've read quite a bit of it. Did you notice the sheet music for a couple of Gurney's songs? I tried playing them, and either whoever composed them had a dismal knowledge of how harmony is supposed to work, or the people of the Imperium have dreadful taste in music.  :P

The entry about the Bene Gesserit Sister who won a free trip to Gamont in a soap contest is hilarious.  :)

Jehansdii, nAudrim 30: I think I

figured it out, what the mentat did.

When I went to work this morning, I

picked up the soap box and right on the

back there's this big ad for a contest

"Name the Slats." And it said, how

many stars in the Lyre Nebula, and if

you fill it out, you win a prize if you're

right. And then I remembered that the

mentat asked me what I did first, before

anything, I still have his paper for a

souvenir. I ought to send it in. Serve

him right.

Phyllisdii, neSheusttm 15: I

won!!! I can't believe it!!! The mentat

was right and I won a Two-Week, All-

Expense Paid Trip to Gamont, Planet

of Pleasure, wherever that is.

Molhersdii. neSheustim 16: Well

1 went to 'see Mother Caius today and

it was very strange

[Khan]

Never read it but I'll probably order it soon if I can get it for not too much money.

[Anathema]

Ditto.

[Emperor Harkonnen]

How much does it cost?

[Dunenewt]

Not much, according to e-Bay.
