Recently I finished Asimov’s Foundation universe and now I want to try something from other authors. Two series I’m most interested in are Dune and Hyperion but I’m not sure which one to read first. Any recommendations?

Edit: I decided to go with Hyperion first and after that I will read Dune. Thank you all for commenting.

    Dune. But only read the first book. It’s a masterpiece, but the others in the series are just plain awful.

      The sequels are not perfect by any means, but 1-4 had me at full attention throughout and then slowed down after that for me. 2 is so short though I really lump it into Book 1 in my head.

      I read the whole series and what got me crying was the epilogue at the end of the last book. For me it was worth.
