I understand why Lord of Light is comparable to Dune. Both have similar themes of humanity (in the future) using the concepts of religion for power and personal vendetta.
This was originally a confusing read (more confusing than the usual sci-fi) but I didn't realize early on that it starts near the end (not even in the middle) and after the major battle with the gods, everything eventually comes into place.
Similar to Dune (specifically to God Emperor), Lord of Light has layers to its story that gives you things to really think about.
