and, in the comments .... Oh. My. GAWD.
I remember sitting in a movie theater in Monterrey, Mexico watching Dune sometime in 1980’s and being blown away. Having never read Dune before, the movie was difficult to follow at times. For those brand new to the “duniverse” who are planning on seeing the new Dune movie if and when it’s made a good recommendation would be to read the three dune prequels (House Atreides, House Harkonnen and House Corrino) before watching the movie. After watching the movie then definitely begin reading the original Dune books in chronological order.
