Sometimes there seems to be all sorts of strange psychic things happening through the internetz. After reading Among Others I made a list of science fiction books I wished to reread, Frank Herbert’s Dune being at the top of the list. I had misplaced or given away my old copy so I went out and found a used copy, planning to read it over the summer. Then I hear about this.
Carl V. of Stainless Steel Droppings, the wonderful blogger who organizes the Once Upon A Time and R.I.P. challenges, Kailana from The Written Word and the Little Red Reviewer are organizing a Dune Read-Along for July. I will be joining in. How about you? Care for some Spice?
I think it is fantastic that the timing worked out this way and I am glad you are joining in with us. I am really looking forward to FINALLY reading Dune.
I am really excited to be joining in on the Dune read-along. I can’t wait to see what you think of it.
I just saw it today on Carl’s blog, thought of Among Others and that I wanted to read some Sci-Fi and that I have a copy of Dune ready here since years. I’m in.
I’m glad your joining in!
Dune is a frequent re-read for me but after failing the Discovery of Heaven read-a-long I will pass. i do look forward to seeing the discussion thought – there are many philosophical questions in Dune which is why I highly recommend it for teenagers.
Enjoy.
Glad to see you are joining in!!
