I've only read the first book and didn't like it very much. How different are the other 5 Dune books? Are they still primarily focused on the characters? I'd really like them to talk a bit more about the technology of the world and why things are the way they are.
Personally, I feel like the books deal more with how people interact and behave in a future environment. Maybe Brian(the author's son)'s prequels deal with that better, but some people hate them.
