I read the oringial dune series many years ago in high school when my teacher assigned book reports for one book in each catagory that she laid out. When it came time to read a a sci-fi book, I had never read one at the time, I wanted "the best of the genere". After doing a litterature search at the local library I came up with the Dune series and after some reading it became obvious why the dune series is one of the best series in the sci-fi genere. The personality of Paul Maudib Atreeties was rather compelling as well as when he trains his fremmen warriors. I still think, to this day, that the first in that series was the best of the series although I have never read any of the new dune series that Brian Herbert has been publishing these days. I might have to go back to read some of them in the near future.
