Children of Dune
Children of Dune

Twins navigate destiny amidst rebellion, prophecy, control.

"Children of Dune" invites you into a universe where the lines between politics, destiny, and power blur. For fans of epic world-building and intricate family dynamics, this continuation of the Dune saga explores the complex and sometimes perilous paths the young Atreides twins must navigate. It's a read that not only expands the rich tapestry of the Dune universe but also delves deeper into the human (and not-so-human) psyche. If the interplay between political intrigue and personal destiny fascinates you, this chapter of the Chronicles won't disappoint.

Description

Book three in Frank Herbert's magnificent Dune Chronicles--one of the most significant sagas in the history of literary science fiction. The Children of Dune are twin siblings Leto and Ghanima Atreides, whose father, the Emperor Paul Muad'Dib, disappeared in the desert wastelands of Arrakis nine years ago. Like their father, the twins possess supernormal abilities--making them valuable to their manipulative aunt Alia, who rules the Empire in the name of House Atreides. Facing treason and rebellion on two fronts, Alia's rule is not absolute. The displaced House Corrino is plotting to regain the throne while the fanatical Fremen are being provoked into open revolt by the enigmatic figure known only as The Preacher. Alia believes that by obtaining the secrets of the twins' prophetic visions, she can maintain control over her dynasty. But Leto and Ghanima have their own plans for their visions--and their destinies.... Includes an introduction by Brian Herbert.
