Description
Dune, Frank Herbert’s epic science-fiction masterpiece set in the far future amidst a sprawling feudal interstellar society, tells the story of Paul Atreides as he and his family accept control of the desert planet Arrakis.
A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism, and politics, Dune takes an unprecedented look into our universe and is transformed by the graphic novel format into a powerful, fantastical tale for a new generation of readers.
Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson’s adaptation retains the integrity of the original novel, and Raúl Allén and Patricia Martín’s magnificent illustrations truly bring the book to life.
