Just to stir the pot even further:

I recently picked up Dante and enrolled in an online course. Inferno and Purgatorio: no problem. I wouldn't say "couldn't put it down" but it was no problem to read. I also watched the Ken Burns special.

Paradiso: hate it. Beatrice is boring.

Have you read the Niven and Pournelle re-telling?

"re-telling" -- sounds horrible, actually.
