You might be right. I'll admit that I enjoyed reading Dune but was so soured on my experience by Dune Messiah that the book has been tarnished ever since.

The plot is basically The Once and Future King without Merlin.

I finished Dune a while back, but I just started reading Dune Messiah. I'm about 2 or 3 chapters in... should I stop now?

Millions of people love Dune. Dune Messiah was the book that changed my mind. Your mileage may vary.
