    I didn’t mind the Preludes trilogy. In fact, there’s a scene in House Harkonnen (I think) which has stuck in my mind and made me vow to destroy any Harkonnen I ever meet. The Denis Villeneuve films could do with that sort of scene as currently I don’t despise the Harkonnens in his adaptation the way I feel I should.

    The Legends trilogy I managed to get through by sheer determination, but the rot was setting in and I only managed half of the first sequels book before giving up.

    Bearing in mind that I didn’t really think too highly of Heretics and Chapterhouse, but I haven’t given them a re-read for many many years.





  • At home.

    DeLonghi BTC long and unadulterated. I don’t have a favourite bean as I like variety. Followed swiftly by another before the DeLonghi switches off.

    On the ship (for that is where I work) French Press, very coarse, something citrusy like Ethiopian Yirg. Left to stew for about 10 to 15 minutes.

    I want to change out my DeLonghi for a Sage. It’ll happen someday.

    I lived on Mull for 2 years and regarded the island as Skye’s overfill carpark. My second year there was during the first Covid lockdown where we had the whole island to ourselves. It was glorious. Not a camper van to be seen.
