An epic tale of rare emotional power, Dune tells the story of Paul Atreides, a young man as gifted as he is brilliant, destined for an extraordinary fate that is far beyond him. If he is to preserve the future of his family and his people, he must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe—the only one capable of providing the world’s most precious resource, which is capable of increasing humanity’s power tenfold. As evil forces vie for control of the planet, only those who overcome their fear will survive.
