      To anyone else who would enjoy reading more about the creation of Dune (the original novel) I would recommend The Road to Dune.

      There's more to the story even than that. I read the draft of "They Stopped The Moving Sands" in The Road to Dune and wondered: whatever happened to the dune control project? It turns out that the grasses they planted then to control the dunes are now regarded as invasive species, and Boy Scouts earn merit badges by ripping them up.
