I was reading on wikipedia that when frank originally serialized dune in magazines he took the 8 novellas and rewrote them to publish dune in novel form. I was wondering if anyone had read the original novellas and knew of any important or existing differences. it would be cool to have a real rough draft of dune instead of the one we got in The Road to Dune. If there were major differences it might be a good project to transcribe them.
I can't find the damn things anywhere, nor a complete set on eBay, does anyone have an opinion on whether or not this would be a project worth starting?
