I recently finished reading Dune. I kept hearing about it as being a classic book with a huge fan following. "The lord of the rings of the sci fi genre" I read...
I was hugely disappointed. I feel the world and story line could have been great, and maybe that's what people like, but the book itself didn't seem very well written. The storytelling seemed really rushed, especially by the end, like the author just got bored of writing at some point. It felt like half the book was leading up to this great battle, then it was over in a few pages and the end... I wanted to like it but just didn't.
Also decided to watch the movie after because why not. One of the worst piece of shit book to movie adaptations I've seen to date. That's a different rant though.
What does /lit/ think of Dune? Am I missing something about it?
