You can keep reading through Frank’s other three Dune novels which span about 5000 years of history, and follow that chronologically by reading our Hunters of Dune and Sandworms of Dune, which were based upon Frank Herbert’s notes…followed by our other prequels and sequels.Īs alternatives, we recommend two other entry points:ĭune: House Atreides begins a prequel trilogy that goes back to the generation just before Dune, in which we tell the story of young Duke Leto, his love story with Lady Jessica, their first battles with Baron Harkonnen, and how Crown Prince Shaddam took the Imperial throne. After that, we suggest Dune Messiah and Children of Dune, to finish Frank Herbert’s original trilogy.Īt that point, you have several options.
This is one of the seminal works in all of literature, and everyone should read it.
We strongly recommend reading Frank Herbert’s original novel Dune first. And with six novels written by Frank himself as well as 13 novels and nine short stories written by us-covering approximately 15,000 years of history in the Dune canon-it can be difficult to figure out where to start. And as he evolves into the mysterious man known as Muad'Dib, he will bring to fruition humankind's most ancient and unattainable dream.Ī stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism and politics, Dune won the first Nebula Award, shared the Hugo Award, and formed the basis of what is undoubtedly the grandest epic in science fiction.Dune is not only a classic novel, but a vast universe created by Frank Herbert. When House Atreides is betrayed, the destruction of Paul's family will set the boy on a journey toward a destiny greater than he could ever have imagined. Coveted across the known universe, melange is a prize worth killing for. Set on the desert planet Arrakis, Dune is the story of the boy Paul Atreides, heir to a noble family tasked with ruling an inhospitable world where the only thing of value is the "spice" melange, a drug capable of extending life and enhancing consciousness.
