I can't speak of the sequel, Messiah, except it's on my reading list, so I enjoyed Dune enough for that.

If you like reading about feuding noble houses, deserts, and ways of nomadic/tribal folk then you should like it.

The amount of lore will either grip or repulse you, there is a map, glossary of terms and three appendices.

try it yourself:


“Caution is the path to mediocrity. Gliding, passionless mediocrity is all that most people think they can achieve.” - quote from 4th book of the series - God Emperor of Dune. results may vary but I think the parts written by Frank are worth atleast a read.

In a loose sense, Wise Blood sorta fits with the character Hazel Motes.
