I think that Herbert ripped off a stranger in a strange land scenario and then got stranger, GROK!

Stranger in a Strange Land is a good novel, but it's nothing like Dune. SIASL was written in 1961 and Dune in 1965 and won the Hugo Award for Best Science Fiction Novel in 1966. I don't think they would have awarded it to him if it was a 'rip-off'..............
