It's a classic. However, my spicy hot take is that the Villeneuve movies might be just as good (if not better??) than the source material. But this is coming from someone who DNF'd the book in 2019 and just finished it the whole way through after seeing Part 2 (2024).
Still definitely an interesting read, especially if you are a fan of classic sci-fi!
