As described in "Navigators of Dune", planet Duono was actually the first source of class of substances later named Spice Melange. This Mega Spice, properties of which were discovered in 690BG, though providing the sought after ability to chart interstellar voyage, also came with unpleasant side effects, commonly referred to as Balls of Ibad. The group which later formed the guild of Navigators thus began search for a place where a less potent version of melange could be found, eventually re-discovering a simple planet known only as Arrakis.

The singular thing about He Who Must Not Be Named that brings me joy, is that he named one of his "original" characters something that sounds like a synonym for female masturbation, which always makes me giggle when I read it because it makes all of the bad fanfiction he writes into bad erofic fanfiction.

Listen buddy, the protagonist here is a cripple and black to boot.... BUT..... despite these debilitating afflictions, he made love eagerly and often to a white lady twice his junior and kissed her on her moist lips too.

No description of the woman's boobs, not to mention their bounce level but I like how the plot of the book seems to be just a retread of Atlas Shrugged, and how UV causes lung cancer, therefore 3/10

chapter 3 of the William Rand Jilling story:

quote:

Despite this, and despite the fact that Billy was getting old now, Lainey Forster thought he was the most handsome man she’d ever met, and the most magnificent representative of the black race she’d ever seen, even in the movies. His skin had very few lines and was quite dark, as if there had not been much interbreeding in his lineage with lighter-skinned races, such as her own. The explosion on Skyship had destroyed his legs, but it had not changed his good looks or gentle personality, and had not prevented him from making love with her.

The color was blue like the sky, sort of. A pinched face and lips taut with hidden purpose. A sigil, an imprimatur, a handsome pheasant riding on a loving goat. Their lips swirled around each other, much like the guy's cool cape that he wore even though he was paraplegic. That was fine. He had saved 908 trillion people with a new kind of toothpaste that made human gum tissue technically immortal.

Lmao Brian massively misunderstood his father's comments on eugenics.

Note also that Frank used the word race when referring to humanity as a whole, and the word lineage when talking about specific genotypes. Imagine having less of a racialist outlook in the loving 60's.

Can you imagine the tremendous dingus hanging between the stumps of Billy's legs, blown off in a massive secret formula gas explosion, that was used to clear AmEarth's atmosphere from pollutants to help remove diseases such as lung and skin cancer, which has caused Billy to be universally revered by the common folk and at the same time hated by the elitists in power?

Brian Herbert sure can.

Totally. That was one of the things I liked about the books. Characters could look like whatever you wanted and there were so many allusions to basically all races (and more) being around.

I especially love what he said when people were like "How do you pronounce X?" and he said "Well, I pronounce it this way but speech in the future won't be recognizable to us so pronounce it the way you want to".
