Welcome to the World of Dune!
Frank Herbert’s Dune is more than just a science fiction novel—it’s an epic saga of power, survival, and destiny. First published in 1965, Dune transports readers to the desert planet of Arrakis, a harsh and unforgiving world where water is scarce, giant sandworms roam, and the spice melange—the most valuable substance in the universe—dictates the fate of empires.
At the heart of the story is Paul Atreides, a young noble thrust into a conflict that spans politics, religion, and ecology. As he navigates betrayal and prophecy, he discovers his own role in a far-reaching struggle that will change the course of history. Herbert’s masterpiece blends intricate world-building with thought-provoking themes, making it a cornerstone of science fiction literature.
