      That’s one of the things that makes Dune so interesting… there are not many books from the bad guys point of view, let alone where you are supposed to recognize that the protagonist-- as you so snarkly noted – isn’t the good guy.

            Oh man. Maybe we’ll get real AI one day that can write that book. It would have been such a good book.

            Nobody better fucking tell Brian Herbert this idea.
