The Duke is poisoned, but his wife and her son Paul escape to the vast and arid deserts of Arrakis, which have given the planet its nickname of Dune.

The scope of Asimov''s Foundation, the attention to detail and context of Tolkien''s LotR, coupled with an unmatched visionary socio-ecological messianic narrative that is scarily relevant today '' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ''Frank Herbert''s immortal space opera that created many of the tropes we take for granted inside them is a book that doesn''t need my endorsement . . . the nobility is some of the most decadent and depraved in fiction . . . It''s a fantastic book, amazing story'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ''The blend of science-aversion, exploitation of the naive by systematic manipulation of religion and witchcraft, and the harsh realities of life in a barren and mineral depleted desert is astounding. I love these books!'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ''Herbert succeeds at juxtaposing so many different elements: ecology, religion, consciousness, feudalism, space travel... gawsh, I could go on! . . . It is a mainly character-driven plot, with the three books in this trilogy focusing on the Atreides family on Dune . . . I think everyone should delve into this world, let themselves be absorbed by it. It makes you question your reality, your choices, your relationships and the impact you have on the world, or the impact the world has on you'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ''Dune perhaps epitomises science-fiction. The willingness to embrace big ideas and show them playing out on a broad canvas . . . You have to read it to believe it'' Goodreads reviewer

This collection of short fiction features “newfound treasures” from the New York Times–bestselling author of Dune (Midwest Book Review). Even the author of Dune—the best-selling science fiction novel of all time—had trouble getting published. At first, Frank Herbert wanted to be a writer, and though today his name is practically synonymous with world-building and epic science fiction, Herbert didn’t start out with a particular genre in mind. He wrote mainstream stories, mysteries, thrillers, mens’ adventure pieces, humorous slice-of-life tales. And, yes, some science fiction. For the first time, this collection presents thirteen completed short stories that Frank Herbert never published in his lifetime. These tales show a great breadth of talent and imagination. Readers can now appreciate the writing of one of the field’s masters in a kaleidoscope of new stories./

A gripping novel of global disaster—by the visionary creator of Dune.

"Set on the desert planet called Arrakis, the focus of an intricate power struggle in a byzantine interstellar empire. Arrakis is the sole source of Melange - necessary for interstellar travel and granting psychic powers and longevity, so whoever controls it wields great influence. The troubles begin when stewardship of Arrakis is transferred by the Emperor from the Harkonnen Noble House to House Atreides. The Harkonnens don''t want to give up their privilege and through sabotage and treachery they cast young Duke Paul Atreides out into the planet''s harsh environment to die. There he falls in with the Fremen, a tribe of desert dwellers who become the basis of the army with which he will reclaim what is rightfully his. Paul Atreides, though, is far more than just a usurped duke. He might be the end product of a very long-term genetic experiment designed to breed a super human; he might be a messiah. His struggle is at the center of a nexus of powerful people and events, and the repercussions will be felt throughout the Imperium."--Publisher''s description.
