Herbert Frank

No conozco nada comparable, excepto El Senor de los Anillos. Arthur C. Clarke

En el desertico planeta Arrakis, el agua es el bien mas preciado y llorar a los muertos, el simbolo de maxima prodigalidad. Pero algo hace de Arrakis una pieza estrategica para los intereses del emperador, las Grandes Casas y la Cofradia, los tres grandes poderes de la galaxia. Arrakis es el unico origen conocido de la melange, preciosa especia y uno de los bienes mas codiciados del universo.

Al duque Leto Atreides se le asigna el gobierno de este mundo inhospito, habitado por los indomitos Fremen y por monstruosos gusanos de arena de centenares de metros de longitud. Sin embargo, cuando la familia es traicionada, su hijo y heredero, Paul, emprendera un viaje hacia un destino mas grande del que jamas hubiese podido sonar.

Mezcla fascinante de aventura, misticismo, intrigas politicas y ecologismo, Dune se convirtio, desde el momento de su publicacion, en un fenomeno de culto y en la mayor epopeya de ciencia ficcion de todos los tiempos.

No conozco nada comparable, excepto El Senor de los Anillos. -Arthur C. Clarke

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Frank Herbert’s classic masterpiece-a triumph of the imagination and one of the bestselling science fiction novels of all time.

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. Coveted across the known universe, melange is a prize worth killing for….

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. And as he evolves into the mysterious man known as Muad'Dib, he will bring to fruition humankind’s most ancient and unattainable dream.

A 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.
