Das große Finale der Graphic Novel Adaption von »Dune«, dem genredefinierenden Science-Fiction-Klassiker von Frank Herbert. Paul Atreides hat seine Rolle als Anführer der Fremen akzeptiert, aber er kennt die Gefahren, die das mit sich bringt: Entweder, sie erobern ihren Heimatplaneten Arrakis von den Harkonnen zurück, oder sein Verlust entfesselt einen Heiligen Krieg, der die Galaxis verschlingen wird. Lady Jessica ist zur Ehrwürdigen Mutter der Bene Gesserit aufgestiegen, aber sie hat Schwierigkeiten, ihren Wunsch, Paul zu unterstützen, mit den Erwartungen ihres Ordens in Einklang zu bringen. Derweil hat Baron Harkonnen die Ausbildung seines Neffen so gut wie abgeschlossen und wird den skrupellosen Feyd-Rautha schon bald als Herrscher über den Wüstenplaneten einsetzen. Ein alles entscheidender Showdown, der nicht nur Arrakis für immer verändern wird, steht kurz bevor! »Dune« erzählt die Geschichte von Paul Atreides und seiner Familie, die auf dem Wüstenplaneten Arrakis die Vorherrschaft über die Förderung des Spice übernehmen, der mystischen Droge, die das Reisen zwischen den Sternen ermöglicht. Frank Herbert revolutionierte mit »Dune« und seiner einzigartigen Mischung aus Abenteuer, Mystizismus, Ökologie und politischem Ränkespiel das Science-Fiction-Genre. Gemeinsam mit Bestseller-Autor Kevin J. Anderson adaptiert sein Sohn Brian Herbert das Meisterwerk in drei Bänden als Graphic Novel, um eine neue Generation von Lesern zu begeistern. Mit Raúl Allén zeichnet einer der profiliertesten Künstler der Comic-Szene für die graphische Umsetzung der Vision Herbert Verantwortung, und die Cover-Illustrationen von Legende Bill Sienkiewicz heben das Projekt endgültig auf ein Niveau, das Exzellenz verspricht.

Collected for the first time, these three previously unpublished Dune novellas by bestselling authors Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson shine a light upon the darker corners of the Dune universe. Spanning space and time, Sands of Dune is essential reading for any fan of the series. The world of Dune has shaped an entire generation of science fiction.

"Readers will enjoy the saga''s surprising end" in the final volume of the New York Times– bestselling trilogy based on Rush''s concept album Clockwork Lives ( Booklist) . In Clockwork Angels and Clockwork Lives, readers met the optimistic young hero Owen Hardy, as well as the more reluctant adventurer Marinda Peake, in an amazing world of airships and alchemy, fantastic carnivals and lost cities. Now Owen Hardy, retired and content in his quiet, perfect life with the beautiful Francesca, is pulled into one last adventure with his eager grandson Alain. This final mission for the Watchmaker will take them up to the frozen lands of Ultima Thule and the ends of the Earth. Marinda Peake must undertake a mission of her own, not only to compile the true life story of the mysterious Watchmaker, but also to stop a deadly new group of anarchists. The Clockwork trilogy is based on the story and lyrics from the last album of musical titans Rush, with Anderson and Peart expanding the world, stories, and characters. The two developed the final novel in the trilogy in the last years of Peart''s life, and more than a year after his passing, Anderson returned to that unfinished project, with the full support of Peart''s wife, bringing Owen and Marinda''s stories to a satisfying and stirring conclusion. "Clockwork Destiny explodes with longing, love and adventure to the far reaches of the world . . . Heartbreaking and uplifting." ― BookReporter

*THE MAGNIFICIENT SAGA CONTINUES. SET IN THE SAME UNIVERSE AS THE BLOCKBUSTER MOVIE NOMINATED FOR 10 ACADAMY AWARDS* Frank Herbert''s magnificent Dune chronicle sprawls across countless planets and tens of millennia. In creating the Dune universe, he created one of the richest and most complex universes ever created in science-fiction--an expanding saga that transports readers to a world of wonder that equally mirrors many political and theological issues plaguing our own societies. Herbert''s true genius was in creating this extremely complex, vast universe in such intricate detail that it all feels real to readers and the issues and themes that his characters deal with are easily identifiable as problems we all face today. While the main novels in this remarkable saga concentrate on major events and major characters, a universe this complex begs for additional stories, filling in all the details that may sometimes get overlooked in the telling of the main saga. Tales of Dune collects eight such stories, ranging from the period of the Butlerian Jihad (the revolt against "thinking" machines, more than 10,000 years before the events of "Dune"), to the time of young Paul Atreides under the tutelage of the Ginaz Swordmaster, Duncan Idaho, to a story set during the events of the novel Dune, to the very end of Frank Herbert''s epic future history. Here are some of the missing pieces from one of the grandest sagas science fiction has ever seen.

A New York Times bestseller imagines the life of Jules Verne in this "rollicking whopper of a novel [that] glides down smoothly" ( Publishers Weekly). Captain Nemo is the fictional life story of one of Jules Verne''s most memorable characters from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and The Mysterious Island.

"K. J. Anderson seamlessly blends events of Jules Verne''s real life with the plotlines of his fictional works. His portrayal of Verne is masterful: a man able to break free from the circumstances that stifle him through his vivid imagination and the inspiration provided by his lifelong friend, Nemo." —Harry Turtledove, New York Times–bestselling author of The Guns of the South "A swashbuckling mix of Jules Verne, Daniel DeFoe, and Michael Crichton." —Terry Brooks, New York Times–bestselling author of The Sword of Shannara

"It is 83 years after the last of the thinking machines were destroyed in the Battle of Corrin, after Faykan Butler took the name of Corrino and established himself as the first Emperor of a new imperium. The great war hero Vorian Atreides has turned his back on politics and Salusa Secundus, flying off to parts unknown; because he was given a life-extension treatment by Agamemnon, he ages very slowly.

Even so, many decades after the defeat of the thinking machines, anti-technology fervor continues to sweep across the human-settled planets, with powerful fanatical groups imposing violent purges....

The planet Hellhole was devastated by a large asteroid impact centuries ago and most of its native species - including a sophisticated alien civilisation - were utterly wiped out. Now Hellhole has been opened up as part of a colonization initiative by the sprawling and decadent Galactic Monarchy, but only the hardiest, or most desperate, pioneers and misfits would dare to settle there. This is their story of trying to tame a shattered world, and of uncovering secrets left behind by a devastated civilization.

A novel based on the Emmy Award-winning television series created by Chris Carter. When a disease-ravaged body is found in the smoldering ruins of the federally funded DyMar genetic research lab, Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully fear that a deadly, man-made plague is on the loose. As the FBI agents investigating the "X-Files" -- cases the bureau has deemed unsolvable -- Mulder and Scully pursue the truth wherever it leads, even into the labyrinthine corridors of the FBI... and beyond. Racing to contain the lethal virus before it can spread, Mulder and Scully make a chilling discovery. Before his death, Dr. David Kennessy, a hotshot cancer researcher at DyMar, had been experimenting with a promising but highly dangerous technology: microscopic bio-machines that can cure any disease, heal any wound. In theory, this research could be a miracle cure, perhaps even a doorway to immortality. It was also the only way Dr. Kennessy could save his leukemia-stricken son. But when a second corpse turns up, savagely mutilated from within, it''s anything but theoretical. Could machines created to cure have learned to kill? Scrambling for answers, Mulder and Scully are opposed at every step by faceless enemies with all the resources of the government -- even perhaps of their own agency -- at their command. Enemies who will stop at nothing to ensure that the secret of immortality falls in the right hands -- their hands. As sinister forces close in, Scully fights to save the life of an innocent boy while Mulder comes face to face with a crazed and desperate man. A man whose slightest touch brings agonizing death -- and perhaps a resurrection more horrible still.
