Vol. 1
The long-awaited sequel to the series created by Frank Herbert will answer the pressing questions that Dune fans have been debating for twenty years: the origin of Honored Matres, the planet Arrakis, the final revelation of Kwisatz Haderach, and the resolution of the war between the 'Man and the Machine.
- Plot The Sand Worms of Dunes Brian Herbert Kevin J. Anderson
Arrakis is the most inhospitable planet in the galaxy. A land of sand and rocks populated by crawling monsters and lashed by devastating storms. But on its surface the melange grows, the substance that gives men the ability to open their mental horizons, know the future, acquire the skills to maneuver the immense spaceships that allow exchanges between worlds and the very survival of the Empire. The choice of the Emperor for the succession of the cruel Harkonnen to the government of the coveted planet falls on the wise Duke Leto, of the Atreides family. It is the end of the fragile balance of power on which the order of the Empire was based, the beginning of a cosmic clash between forces, magical and mysterious peoples, unknown and unfathomable intelligences. With Dune, Frank Herbert inaugurates the series of novels that have now become cult, which will indelibly mark the literary and cinematographic sci-fi imagery of the following years.
