This is much better advice than the grandparent.

Indeed, if you found Dune too difficult and political and expansive, don't go for God Emperor of Dune.

But if you do like that sort of stuff, someone telling you to stop at Dune would be criminal. God Emperor is easily the best in the series, IMO.

I agree. The best part of the series in my opinion, is the political machination. God Emperor probably has the most of that. Messiah is probably the weakest novel in the set in my opinion.
