DSO - Howdy!
I read The Butlerian Jihad - and it's sequels... the 2nd Dune Prequel. Interesting - not as good as the father, but VERY good nevertheless.

I am reading "The Rowan" by Anne MacCaffery (sp?) and a textbook: A History of the Christian Church by WIlliston Walker.

I bought a book by the mathematician Ian Stewart, Letters to a Young Mathematician, which I am looking forward to reading - when I finish the others!

Regards from Texas,
Ted

You are right Ted, the original Dune is better but the new books are pretty good too.
