Book Synopsis



Frank Herbert's epic masterpiece--a triumph of the imagination and one of the bestselling science fiction novels of all time.

Set on the desert planet Arrakis, Dune is the story of Paul Atreides, heir to a noble family tasked with ruling an inhospitable world where the only thing of value is the "spice" melange, a drug capable of extending life and enhancing consciousness. Coveted across the known universe, melange is a prize worth killing for...

When House Atreides is betrayed, the destruction of Paul's family will set the boy on a journey toward a destiny greater than he could ever have imagined. And as he evolves into the mysterious man known as Muad'Dib, he will bring to fruition humankind's most ancient and unattainable dream.

A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism and politics, Dune won the first Nebula Award, shared the Hugo Award, and formed the basis of what is undoubtedly the grandest epic in science fiction.

Review Quotes




Praise for Dune

"I know nothing comparable to it except The Lord of the Rings."--Arthur C. Clarke

"It is possible that Dune is even more relevant now than when it was first published."--The New Yorker

"An astonishing science fiction phenomenon."--The Washington Post

"One of the monuments of modern science fiction."--Chicago Tribune

"Powerful, convincing, and most ingenious."--Robert A. Heinlein

"Herbert's creation of this universe, with its intricate development and analysis of ecology, religion, politics and philosophy, remains one of the supreme and seminal achievements in science fiction."--Louisville Times



About the Author



Frank Herbert is the bestselling author of the Dune saga. He was born in Tacoma, Washington, and educated at the University of Washington, Seattle. He worked a wide variety of jobs--including TV cameraman, radio commentator, oyster diver, jungle survival instructor, lay analyst, creative writing teacher, reporter and editor of several West Coast newspapers--before becoming a full-time writer.

In 1952, Herbert began publishing science fiction with "Looking for Something?" in Startling Stories. But his emergence as a writer of major stature did not occur until 1965, with the publication of Dune. Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse: Dune followed, completing the saga that the Chicago Tribune would call "one of the monuments of modern science fiction." Herbert is also the author of some twenty other books, including The White Plague, The Dosadi Experiment, and Destination: Void. He died in 1986.

I love that I got this on sale. This special edition hardback is a beautiful copy of the book. The colorful edges of the page make it stand out no matter which side it’s on. For those of y’all like me who don’t like the “now a major motion picture” emblem on your books this one doesn’t have one. Great copy of a great book.

Absolutely gorgeous. It's so lustrous. I don't think the photos do it justice. In my opinion, it's even better than the Penguin Galaxy Edition. It's a must for collectors of beautiful books.

Story aside, this particular edition is GORGEOUS. The photo doesn't even do it justice. It has a matte metal sheen, like brushed copper, and the teal accents really pop. Makes a great gift for a fan or collector.

I can’t speak for the content of this book since it’s a gift; but the condition in which is arrived is impeccable. I am usually pretty skeptical about ordering books online, especially hardcover; however this book looks like it just came off the press. No bent edges, no damage or marring on the dust jacket. It’s a beautiful book.
