Dragoon Knight Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 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. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Cover to cover and a lot of research.Take that, prequels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard3000 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emperor Harkonnen Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Also just read parts of it, didn't feel like reading 500 pages on a screen with my online version. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I've read it quite a few times now, each time I discover more and more. Interesting stuff, if a little strange at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypatia Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 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. :PThe entry about the Bene Gesserit Sister who won a free trip to Gamont in a soap contest is hilarious. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Jehansdii, nAudrim 30: I think Ifigured it out, what the mentat did.When I went to work this morning, Ipicked up the soap box and right on theback there's this big ad for a contest"Name the Slats." And it said, howmany stars in the Lyre Nebula, and ifyou fill it out, you win a prize if you'reright. And then I remembered that thementat asked me what I did first, beforeanything, I still have his paper for asouvenir. I ought to send it in. Servehim right.Phyllisdii, neSheusttm 15: Iwon!!! I can't believe it!!! The mentatwas right and I won a Two-Week, All-Expense Paid Trip to Gamont, Planetof Pleasure, wherever that is.Molhersdii. neSheustim 16: Well1 went to 'see Mother Caius today andit was very strange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
