Før Game of Thrones, Hunger Games, Tjenerindens fortælling og Star Wars var der Dune.Frank Herberts stort anlagte geopolitiske saga om naturressourcer, menneskets potentiale og kampen mod imperialisme er blandt alle tiders mest berømte sciencefiction-værker og genudgives nu på dansk.Melange, eller ‘krydderiet’, er det mest værdifulde og mest eftertragtede element i universet. Et stof, der blandt meget andet kan forlænge menneskets levetid og muliggøre interstellare rejser. Og det findes kun på en planet: den ugæstfri ørkenverden Arrakis – også kaldet Dune. Den, der kontrollerer krydderiet, kontrollerer universet.Da Kejseren overdrager forvaltningen af Arrakis fraHuset Harkonnen til Huset Atreides, udbryder et spil på liv og død om det galaktiske herredømme og universets fremtid. I midten af kampen står Paul Atreides, arving til Atreides-tronen, og hans familie, der skal navigere blandt venner og fjender for at overleve. Efter et attentat mod tronen tvinges Paul ud i ørkenen, hvor han reddes af en gruppe frimenere, Arrakis oprindelige beboere, som han bliver leder for i kampen mod overmagten.Motion Picture Artwork © 2021 Legendary and Warner Bros.

Og da Huset Atreides begynder at smuldre, trues hans elsker, Chani, og dermed den ufødte arving til hans families dynasti.Motion Picture Artwork © 2021 Legendary and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.

Book One in the classic conclusion to Frank Herbert's worldwide bestselling Dune Chronicles Hunters of Dune and the concluding volume, Sandworms of Dune, bring together the great story lines and beloved characters in Frank Herbert's classic Dune universe, ranging from the time of the Butlerian Jihad to the original Dune series and beyond. Based directly on Frank Herbert's final outline, which lay hidden in a safe-deposit box for a decade, these two volumes will finally answer the urgent questions Dune fans have been debating for two decades.At the end of Chapterhouse: Dune--Frank Herbert's final novel--a ship carrying the ghola of Duncan Idaho, Sheeana (a young woman who can control sandworms), and a crew of various refugees escapes into the uncharted galaxy, fleeing from the monstrous Honored Matres, dark counterparts to the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood. The nearly invincible Honored Matres have swarmed into the known universe, driven from their home by a terrifying, mysterious Enemy. As designed by the creative genius of Frank Herbert, the primary story of Hunters and Sandworms is the exotic odyssey of Duncan's no-ship as it is forced to elude the diabolical traps set by the ferocious, unknown Enemy. To strengthen their forces, the fugitives have used genetic technology from Scytale, the last Tleilaxu Master, to revive key figures from Dune's past-including Paul Muad'Dib and his beloved Chani, Lady Jessica, Stilgar, Thufir Hawat, and even Dr. Wellington Yueh. Each of these characters will use their special talents to meet the challenges thrown at them.Failure is unthinkable--not only is their survival at stake, but they hold the fate of the entire human race in their hands.At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Tales of Dune collects eight such stories, ranging from the period of the Butlerian Jihad, to the time of young Paul Atreides, to a story set during the events of the novel Dune, to the very end of Frank Herbert's future history."--Dust jacket flap.
