Dune is an example of massive world-building with a tons of jargon, but you still liked it? It seems that this post is saying you don't like books like Dune, so how did you manage to enjoy it?
You do know nothing is black and white in life, right?
Anyways, I wouldn't put Dune as my 5* read, but I did enjoy it. I only read the main part of the main Dune book, not the whole series, prequels etc. Also, it is mainly set on one planet.
I don't blame you for not reading the rest of the Dune series, it wasn't my cup of tea, either, but why don't you watch a movie or something if you don't want to actually read a book?
