I loved the six original Dune novels of Frank Herbert. They aren't easy reading by any means (similar to Tolkien), but for those that appreciate extremely-deep works, the Dune novels are one of the finest examples.

I really hope that no more movies or mini-series are made of of Herbert's novels. They just don't work. You CAN NOT make a movie out of these books.
They will NEVER translate well to film.
