And is Luna, the significant other of Mac Tonight?

"Here is light. You will say that it is not a living entity, but you miss the point that it is more, not less. Without occupying space, it fills the universe. It nourishes everything, yet itself feeds upon destruction. We claim to control it, but does it not perhaps cultivate us as a source of food? May it not be that all wood grows so that it can be set ablaze, and that men and women are born to kindle fires?"

That's an odd choice to make cheap. No one should be entering the Dune universe at Chapterhouse. It really makes me wonder why they didn't just make all 6 Dune books $1.99.(It's sad that 6 of them were all that were ever written. Ever. )

They just kind of randomly drop the price on individual books from time to time. I've picked up 1, 2, 3, and now 6 on sale at various points over the past year.

For those who haven't read it, this is a GREAT book. Pick it up!
Or maybe I just want Kel's coat. Either way!

Salt-man beat you to this about ten posts up.
But yes, I highly endorse the series.
