Dune by Frank Herbert

Possibly the best science fiction novel ever. The sequels and prequels co-authored by his son are dreck, however.

"Dune by Frank Herbert"

This has been mentioned several times, to my surprise. I just thought it was long. But I liked it. Maybe it conveyed mood more than intellectual content. I probably would not have the patience to read it today.
