Emperor Harkonnen Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 There is sentient life, but in another universe, I think this is spoiler for those who haven't read House Corrino, so don't read if so:in HC the guild heighleiner got out of course and came out from foldspace in another universe, where an alien enemy was approaching, but they managed to get back.

TMA_1 Posted October 18, 2002 Share Posted October 18, 2002 Frank herbert did not write the prequels. Thats the first thing. Also vanguard is right. Alien just means different, unknown and so on. Dune has no other sentient life and if brian and kevin did put alien life in the series then I would respect it but kinda be sad. because the cool thing about Dune itself is its completely different from other sci fi novels. It takes rich cultures of our world and molds them into a futuristic novel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inhuien Posted November 19, 2002 Share Posted November 19, 2002 One small point regarding the "Pearl of awareness" that each and every post Leto worm carries, Its a plot device so that in future novels (bare in mind I'm speaking abour GeoD)he can introduce Sonya and not have her pulped.He's not trying to state that the worms are in any way more aware than say the worm of Pauls time, Mearly that they have some kind of subconscious memory of the "Golden Path", and is that which you should keep in your mind when reading the books. To steal a quote from "Starship Troopers" we're in this for the species.L8r peepS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
