Re: OT: Dune Series On Audio CD
I have to ask, how did people read his books? If the audio CD makes me want to go to sleep, then how in the hell were people able to read his books. (The story is not bad, when it is actually being told.)
I mean when I have to rewind every few minutes just to figure out what in the hell is going on, and I am a semi smart guy, then how did normal people read this book?

Re: OT: Dune Series On Audio CD
I didn't. I got bored part-way through and put it down. But then, some people say I'm not normal. 
Rent the movie, is my advice. Just as incomprehensible, but the action comes quicker. (Saw it on tv)

Re: OT: Dune Series On Audio CD
Dune by itself shouldn't be boring. However, if you get to God Emperor of Dune, Chapter House Dune etc., I can see how it can be boring.

Heh, when you're reading you can sub-consiously fast forward through those parts, I imagine.
...streets...dusty...crowded... blah blah... shadowy figure... Oooh, plot and action!
