Arrakis is the source of spice, a mind-enhancing drug which makes interstellar travel possible; it is the most valuable substance in the galaxy. When Duke Atreides and his family take up court there, they fall into a trap set by the Duke's 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. But learning to survive is not enough - Paul's destiny was mapped out long ago and his mother is committed to seeing it fulfilled. First edition-10th printing of this new edition.

Frank Herbert's Dune trilogy, consisting of Dune (1965), Dune Messiah (1969), and Children of Dune (1976), is a cornerstone of science fiction. The epic saga is set on the desert planet Arrakis, where Paul Atreides rises to power amidst political intrigue, religious prophecy, and ecological challenges. The trilogy explores complex themes of power, religion, and environmental stewardship as Paul, and later his children, navigate the consequences of his messianic role. The series is lauded for its intricate world-building, deep philosophical insights, and the way it redefines the science fiction genre with its rich narrative.
