After I read Dune, I was very impressed. Then I picked up its sequel, Dune Messiah and plodded through it. I then picked up its sequel, Children of Dune and could not go beyond the first 10 or 15 pages and I gave up on that series. Today I learned that there were 6 novels in the Dune series.
Similar to my feelings reading Robert Jordan's 'The Wheel of Time'. Never did get past the first one and one or two pages of the second one that I flipped through at a bookstore.
