    Never read Dune, but Neuromancer was one of the first SF-books ever that I got to read, back in the late 80s.
    Needless to say that it adequately blew my mind…

      Dune is a weird story mixing sci-fi, fantasy and religion, it isn’t my favorite sci-fi work, but it is a great work.

      Neuromancer, the environment is fantastic, brilliant, but never got into the story.

        As you seem not to be frightened by large books and also seem to like books with historic setting before scientific background, I would strongly recommend you the “Baroque” cycle by Neal Stephenson.
        Not sure if there is a good audiobook version of it though…
