Corrino is the 3rd in the prequel trilogy of books leading up to the original novel, Dune.
I enjoyed it so much that I’ll continue with the audio version of the master work, itself.
I see a huge future film epic something like Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings, the acting and story more important than special effects.
Paramount, I expect, wants to make another Avatar 3D, but … you know, … in the desert.
Chase Palmer has been hired to write director Pierre Morel’s (Taken, From Paris With Love) version of Dune at Paramount. According to THR, Palmer will be working with Morel to stick close to the original source material, which is the 1965 classic book by Frank Herbert. As most of you know, David Lynch took a crack at Dune back in 1984 at Universal.
It’s important to note while Palmer has been hired to write the script, that doesn’t mean Dune is moving in front of the cameras anytime soon. With what has to be a huge budget and complicated source material to adapt, many have tried to get Dune off the ground with little success (Peter Berg). Just because a hot director wants to make the film, doesn’t mean it’s going to happen. It’s going to take a lot of happy studio executives and some big name stars to get this thing rolling. More as we hear it.

Hey, Rick! Glad you enjoyed them! I may just have to add a small “I told you so…”
The next bunch by Brian are at least as good… takes you right up to – and past – where Frank’s went, and, with the exception of the original “Dune,” are better… they stay very consistent in tone and style, and they actually make a good deal of sense.
You’ll enjoy them, methinks!
THANKS
I think I’ll keep going in chronological progression with Scott Brick as narrator of the audio books. For now. Next up, Dune itself.
But eventually I’ll get to Brian’s other books.
THANKS
