notably missing from that list: The Riddle-Master of Hed, Earthsea, Light, The Stainless Steel Rat, Winter's Tale, Children of the Triad...
@wirehead2501 Yeah, there's a perceptible bias toward books people can be referred to the movie adaptation of, methinks.

@chaosprime or voters tended to be "people who don't read that much but pick up a book they liked the movie of", which, meh. -
@wirehead2501 Yeah. Well, at least we can be reasonably certain that wasn't a huge problem with Dune! -
@chaosprime LOL. i read all of Dune, all the way to Chapterhouse: Dune. a real slog. -
@wirehead2501 Same here. Though I did think Chapterhouse was actually worth sticking with it for. -
@chaosprime it was a long time ago, but i have a hard time with very political-intriguey books, as a rule. same issue with Foundation iirc. -
@wirehead2501 Yeah. Herbert was very hit-or-miss with the trusting-the-reader-to-figure-shit-out thing, but he hit often enough.
