Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. Herbert's original "Dune" series is a monumental work in the science fiction genre, renowned for its intricate world-building, complex characters, and profound themes. The series begins with "Dune", introducing readers to the desert planet of Arrakis and the epic struggle for control over its valuable spice, melange. The story of Paul Atreides, who rises from a young noble to the powerful Muad'Dib, sets the stage for a saga of political intrigue, ecological themes, and philosophical musings. "Dune Messiah" continues Paul's journey, exploring the consequences of his power and the burdens of messianic expectations, while "Children of Dune" (1976) shifts focus to Paul's offspring, Leto II and Ghanima, who navigate their own destinies amidst the crumbling remnants of their father's empire.

Tiny creases on edges of jacket's spine. The publication history of 'Dune' has become legend. After researching sand dunes in Oregon Herbert conceived the idea to write the story. The novel was first serialised in ANALOG magazine from Decmber 1963 onwards as 'Dune World' and 'Prophet of Dune'. After 23 rejections by established publishers, Chilton Company, a car repair manual printing company, published the novel in October 1965. The print run was very low and about half of the initial run had to be discarded. Very few copies have survived in decent condition. Very rare to find the complete trilogy signed and in this outstanding condition. Dune remains the best science fiction novel of all time. It won the 1966 Hugo and Nebula Award. It has been described as the science fiction equivalent to Tolkien's 'The Lord of the Rings' in fantasy in the book's scope, depth, complexity and quality of writing. It has had a colossal influence on the sci-fi genre in literature and film. For exmaple, without 'Dune' 'Star Wars' would not have been made. 'Dune' has been adaped into film by David Lynch in 1984; and as a TV-mini series in 2000. An earlier attempt to film the source material by Alejandro Jodorowsky in the 1970s failed due to lack of finances. A star cast (Salvador Dali; Orson Welles) and the most creative team of that time (film score by Pink Floyd; conceptual art by H.R Giger; Jean Giraud and Chris Foss) had been working on the project and it became 'the most influential film that was never made'. A new film adaptation by Canadian director Dennis Villeneuve who has made some outstanding science fiction films in the past ('Arrival' and 'Blade Runner 2049') was released in 2021, and early 2024 in two parts to universal acclaim.
