Agree with all of this, with caveats. The last Covenant series was heavy going. I have them all in hardback and still haven't finished them. The Dune books got iffy after the first three and the ones written by his son are bloody awful. Have you read Julian May's Rampart worlds trilogy? Not as epic as exiles but good fun.It's a great little saga for kids.
I prefer my Sci-Fi and Fantasy books.
The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant is very good.
The "Dune" series is excellent (the new film is due, with decent CGI effects).
Far and away my favourite is the much under-appreciated "Saga of the Exiles" Quadrilogy by Julian May.
