Dune fans check this out!

For all of you Dune fans with young children, they have combined a classic bed time story with the classic SciFi series...

Enjoy!

I've read the 6 books in the original series many times. This could be a documentary. Better special effects than I have seen on the movie too....

Ah, but where are the Tleilaxu Face Dancers to deceive, the Guild Navigators to guide, the hidden stores of Melange.

Awesome series .. the follow-ons his son put out after his death were not a patch on Franks Herberts writings. Chapter House had none of the grandeur of the original 6 books.

I don't disagree that many other "characters" could have been selected for this bed time story but this was still pretty cool.

I loved the original books the supplementals written by his son are okay and I enjoyed them but they are not as spiffy as the originals. I think Frank Herbert would have been an interesting dinner guest!
