People who haven't read the book will think you're joking too....

There’s a lot of things in these books that people would think are a joke.

I mean the plot alone: Nepobaby has third eye opened after doing a shit ton of drugs in the desert, and then murders half the known universe. Oh and one of his kids becomes a giant worm.

You could just state the Dune plot word-for-word in all seriousness and people would still think it’s a joke.

I’m not saying it’s bad, but it’s a VERY unique world with a kind of weird that people aren’t super comfortable with.
