Dune takes you into a steam punk futuristic world where a young man is set to come of age, a duke, and a savior for the desert world dune.
This is a big read with a lot of world building. If you are patient and willing to go through that the plot has a lot to offer. Once you understand the world and politics it is really thrilling. Would give it a five star but the author can sometimes be very overwhelming in language. Having to reread it a couple times.
