If these prequels are commercially successful, the two plan to pen a seventh book, based on Frank Herbert's notes.

Apart from cover art, typos and layout difference, these are the only known differences between different editions of the _Dune_ series. Additional and more specific information is always appreciated. --------------- 5.7.1 _Dune_ first edition Apparently, the first edition of _Dune_ lacked the appendices found in all later editions of that book, with the exception of the Terminology of the Imperium glossary (which is located at the beginning of the book). Final confirmation on this point is still requested. --------------- 5.7.2 _The Illustrated Dune_ _The Illustrated Dune_, Frank Herbert (ill. John Schoenherr), New York : Berkley Pub. (1978, c1965). _The Illustrated Dune_ was the first and is still the most fully illustrated bound edition of _Dune_. It contains eight full-colour paintings and 33 ink drawings, in addition to the cover and the standard map. The following is a list of all the paintings: -Dawn at the Palace of Arrakeen -Baron Vladimir Harkonnen -The Sardaukar warriors -The flight through the Shield Wall -Paul Muad'Dib calling his first sandworm -Stilgar and his men -Paul administers the oath of the Fedaykin -The defeat of the Sardaukar --------------- 5.7.3 _Dune_ Easton Memorial Edition _Dune_, Frank Herbert (ill. John Schoenherr), Norwalk, Conn. : Easton Press Pub. (1987). Memorial collector's edition that contains illustrations, collector's notes and "Remembrances" by a number of science fiction writers. The book reproduces the paintings and some (6) of the drawings from _The Illustrated Dune_. The printing quality on the drawings is lower than in _The Illustrated Dune_, but all things considered - leather binding, gilt edges, paper quality, satin bookmark, silk lining and extra material - this is definitely the deluxe Dune edition. (Be warned that recent reprints of this edition have lacked the silk lining, and have slight differences in binding and embossing font. They are otherwise similar to the description above.) The Memorial Edition is given as a bonus for those subscribing to the "Masterpieces of Science Fiction" series. You can cancel at any time. Easton Press 47 Richards Avenue Norwalk, CT 06857 1-800-367-4534 (US and Canada callers) 1-203-855-8717 (All others) The drawings included in this edition are: -Lady Jessica introduces Paul to the Reverend Mother -Jessica in the Weirding Room -Dr. Liet-Kynes -Paul and Jessica in a 'thopter -The questing worm mouth seeks Paul and Jessica -The Imperial tent (For paintings, see the list for _The Illustrated Dune_.) --------------- 5.7.4 _Dune: New Illustrated Edition_ _Dune_, Frank Herbert (ill.

Putnam's sons edition, lack the "When I was writing Dune..." introduction. ------------------------------ 5.8 Are there any comics and illustrated books about Dune? --------------- 5.8.1 Illustrated books See subjects 5.3.4, 5.7.2, 5.7.3 and 5.7.4. --------------- 5.8.2 Comic books _Dune: The official Marvel Comics adaptation_, Ralph Macchio (after the film by David Lynch, based on the novel by Frank Herbert, art by Bill Sienkiewicz), New York : Marvel Comics Group, distributed by Berkley (1984).

See subject 5.6. ------------------------------ 5.9 Can I get a signed copy of _The Dune Encyclopedia_? Rumours of signed hardcover copies of the Dune Encyclopedia (DE) have lately (98/12/19) been circulating on alt.fan.dune. Dr. Willis E. McNelly, who compiled and edited the DE, denies ever having signed anything but paperback copies. ANY SIGNED HARDCOVER COPIES OF THE DUNE ENCYCLOPEDIA ARE FAKE! However, Dr. McNelly has offered to provide Dune fans with an opportunity to have their copies of the DE inscribed with a personalized note (meaning that signed copies WITH a personalized note from now on need not be fake). This is the information straight from Dr. McNelly: "A local used book store manager (big SF fan) about half a mile way has made the following suggestion based on what I did for him a few weeks ago when he got a copy of the DE in and I signed it for him as his personal copy. If DE owners anywhere in the country want their copies signed by me, they can be mailed to his bookstore: The Book Baron, 1310 E. Chapman, Fullerton, CA 92831. Attention: Dr. Willis McNelly The cost will be 1) $3.20 for the priority mail return postage, and 2) $7.00 for handling which includes the return envelope, for a total of $10.20 US. (Please note: ALL copies MUST be mailed registered, or via UPS, or some other mail mechanism which can be tracked, or at least prove that a copy *was* mailed to the bookstore. This is at Hitch's insistence; he is concerned that some of the trolls that have dropped in from time to time might claim that they mailed one, via regular mail, and try to get "compensation" from me or the bookstore owner). A return paste-on or stick-on address label MUST be included. He will call me as they arrive and I will sign the books, with a personal inscription, NOT a mere signature, and take them to the PO (100 yards away) for mailing. I will use the free Priority Mail envelopes from the PO, but the address label is a MUST." Any further questions should be addressed to John Kenny <jkenny5@bellsouth.net>, NOT to Dr. McNelly or the FAQ maintainer. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The FAQ continues in Part 3 Bye!
