Iirc, the story was so dense you could serialize it and have one episode per page with a whole plot -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 27, 20:15 4
- I've only read the first book, and I only read it this summer, but this take is within a few pages of being correct. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 27, 20:25 3
  - the other books... aren't as good. - mafic Oct 27, 21:33 1
    - Oh, yes, I don't plan on reading further. But I'd call Dune itself a must-read. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 27, 21:39
  - It was pretty captivating. And 20 year old me would have highly enjoyed it. - Beryllium Oct 27, 20:36
Pretty sure I read the book in high school? -- nm - ty97 Oct 27, 20:12 2
- Interesting. The bf has read it a bunch, not sure if in school. I don't read sci-fi, so I had no idea what it was about, but I was blown away. -- nm - MDH Oct 27, 20:15 1
  - It was one of those 'choose your own book' things and some TA recommended it as I recall. I'm not a sci-fi person - ty97 Oct 27, 20:23
If you watch it on HBOMax or anything not a huge theater with amazing sound, you've made a big mistake. -- nm - MDH Oct 27, 20:12 1
- Sweet! -- nm - con_carne Oct 27, 20:53
