I've been listening to the Andy Serkis reading it lately. First experience since I was a kid. It's surprisingly nuanced for something so old and so baked into the popular culture. It's kind of amazing how flattened my memory of it from childhood is.

Dune as well. And Snowcrash too

Snow Crash is satire, though. And not exactly high fantasy.
