I'll have to give a nod to the literature draft that got me interested in science fiction. Lots of talk about it there peeked my interest and this is my test novel for it.
If you like Dune, you should make sure you read the rest of the series. I loved Dune, but the series as a whole is flat out amazing IMO. Probably the only fiction series I plan on re-reading every few years. I get so much of it, it can be read at a bunch of different levels I think.
