Tim,

Your first book Frank Herbert: The Maker of Dune, has been for me "a shortening of the way". I've read it many times. Where to next?

Deeply in your debt,
hanged man


Thanks. I bet of all the books I've written, that is the one that's least known. It's where I cut my teeth as a writer. A lot of the ideas in it have had a major influence on me in years since. Herbert was a pretty cool guy.
