Recently, I've thought that the Paul character is somewhat like the character of Hamlet.
It's a good book. I never got into the series, read a couple follow up books, but, the first couple were good. I never watched the tv shows, or saw the movies. Hollywood is so lame lately, I hate watching how they hack up a good story. The description of the blue eyes and riding the worms I remember well. I'm probably due to read them again. Kind of like the Hobbit.
