About this listen

The exciting first book in a new Dune trilogy

It is 83 years after the last of the thinking machines were destroyed in the Battle of Corrin, after Faykan Butler established himself as the first emperor of a new imperium.

War hero Vorian Atreides has turned his back on Salusa Secundus, flying off to parts unknown. Abulurd Harkonnen, convicted of cowardice, was sent away to live on gloomy Lankiveil, and his descendants continue to blame Vor for the downfall of their fortunes. Raquella Berto-Anirul has formed the Bene Gesserit School as the first Reverend Mother. Descendants of Aurelius Venport and Norma Cenva have built a powerful transportation company using mutated Navigators who fly 'spacefolder ships'. Gilbertus Albans has established a school on bucolic Lampadas teaching humans to become Mentats. Even so, decades after the defeat of the thinking machines, anti-technology fervor continues to sweep across the human-settled planets, with powerful fanatical groups imposing violent purges....

A fantastic addition to the Dune Series

There are multiple characters interwoven into a brilliant narrative that builds to a satisfactory end leading you ready for Act 2 in the series.

Maintaining the High Standard

With the exception of The Battle of Corrin (too much like Warhammer for me) the prequels have been great and Sisterhood is another good romp with some familiar names. Excellent.

Good

I thought it was good, similar to the other dune plots, just not as good as the original books, I would say a must for dune fans.

Not as enthralling

Not that enthralling as the other books still a good read though. Although for me it was a bit of an anti climax

Great story fills in the gaps left in Dune

Another brilliant story by Brian Herbert and K Anderson. They are great storytellers and explain everything that happened before Dune. Stunning . I also like the narrator. i still maintain that the authors are better storytellers than Frank Herbert.

Another great tale from the Dune Universe

Part one of the latest trilogy and equally as good as those written previously. A must read for fans of Dune and it's now many prequels.
