Lines: 14 Keywords: frank herbert, dune Xref: watmath net.sf-lovers:12645 net.rumor:1485 Someone told me today that Frank Herbert recently died. If so, science fiction has lost in my opinion its' greatest creative genius. I've read the "Dune" series up through "Chapterhouse: Dune" and I can say without question that it is THE most impressive work I've read in science fiction. Is this just a bad rumor? I normally don't read this group so if this has already been discussed I apologize. ------- Name : Brad L.
