Either by some twist of fate or very patient waiting, I finally got hold of the first three books in the Dune series from the Bedok branch library today. Dune, Dune Messiah and Children of Dune are part of the original sci-fi masterpieces of Frank Herbert.
Started on Dune and am immediately amazed by his detail and rich settings.
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
