Author: Frank Herbert

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.-Goodreads

Review: After seeing the preview for the new Dune movie, I decided it was time to finally read this. I really enjoyed this-the plot is slow moving I loved the world building. I also love Jessica, she is definitely my favorite character.

Grade: 4/5
