Does anyone have a reading order which makes the most sense for someone who’s never read or watched anything Dune? Thank you in advance!

    Dune

    Dune Messiah

    Children of Dune

    God Emperor of Dune

    Anything beyond that is extremely optional

    The original 6

    The House trilogy

    The Butlerian Jihad

    Hunters of Dune

    Sandworms of Dune

    After a first read through, I started just reading them chronologically.

    I know there’s at least one more trilogy that you can throw after The Butlerian Jihad. I found it more forgettable than the rest of these.

      Unless you’re REALLY jonesing for more Dune and can stomach books written at a 3rd grade level and missing the point of the originals, you can stop after the original 6.
