          my families dog is also getting old… idk this might hit me the hardest, I cant imagine how you feel rn - my condolences.

          Arrakis… yeah, I gotta watch Dune too :D Haven’t yet. The name is originating from the kyrillic translation since peanut is such widespread nickname, I adapted it like that :D “Arachis hypogaea” is also the bontanic term for example

          Both books and TV series are worth it. There’s enough difference to make both interesting and the authors were involved enough in the TV series that it is still good.

          Bonus: The book series is complete and, while there is another book and some short stories of narrative content, the show ends without a “we got cancelled” cliffhanger and the final book is a bit of an extended epilogue with a significant time gap, so, maybe we’ll get a production of another season in another decade.

          Double bonus: The authors’ new book series, which just has its first book released last year, has already had a TV series deal signed.
