2666.

Next is either Les Miserables, War and Peace, Dune, A Confederacy of Dunces, Ender's Game, Brave New World, Crime and Punishment, A Wrinkle in Time, The Red Badge of Courage, Rainbow's End, or Fahrenheit 451.

Why, yes, I am a newfag. Personally, I'm leaning towards Les Miserables.

How is it? I started it when I was in school, but always had stuff coming up. The beginning seemed a bit dry and pedestrian - nothing that really blew my mind like his other writings.
Does it get better?

Hate to break it to you, but none of the Dune books ever come close to the quality of the first one. I wasted a lot of time learning this. If I were you I'd save your time and go read about sandworms on Wikipedia or something to satisfy your curiosity.
