When Duke Atreides and his family take up court there, they fall into a trap set by the Dukes bitter rival, Baron Harkonnen. 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.Paul and his mother join the Fremen, the Arrakis natives, who have learnt to live in this harsh and complex ecosystem.

A science fiction spectacular like no other, this is a deeply climate conscious novel, and a compelling family saga for the ages.* * * * * * * * * * * * *This is - quite simply - the most magnificent Sci-Fi epic ever written . . . The scope of Asimovs Foundation, the attention to detail and context of Tolkiens LotR, coupled with an unmatched visionary socio-ecological messianic narrative that is scarily relevant today Goodreads reviewer, Frank Herberts immortal space opera that created many of the tropes we take for granted inside them is a book that doesnt need my endorsement . . . the nobility is some of the most decadent and depraved in fiction . . . Its 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, feuda Author Biography Frank Herbert (1920-86) was born in Tacoma, Washington and worked as a reporter and later editor of a number of West Coast newspapers before becoming a full-time writer.
