What did you think of Dune Messiah? When I read those a long time ago, I loved the first one, but didn't like Messiah enough to keep reading the series. But that was so long ago that I don't even remember why I didn't like it, so it might've been good for all I know.
Yeah, so the only reason I was able to make it through Dune Messiah was because the preface basically said "Hey, sorry this book sucks, I promise it's setting up for the third book [Children of Dune]". Children of Dune was really good--not sure it's worth slogging through Messiah, but if you're hankering for some sci-fi...
Actually if you're hankering for sci-fi read the Culture series by Iain M. Banks. It's fucking incredible.
