'Unique among SF novels.. I know nothing comparable to it except The Lord of the Rings.' -- Arthur C. Clarke on DUNE 'Frank Herbert would surely be delighted and proud of this continuation of his vision.' Dean Koontz 'Those who long to return to the world of desert, spice and sandworms will be amply satisfied.' The Times 19991120 'Herbert and Anderson have met the challenge admirably. Within a web of relationships in which no act has simple of predictable consequences, they lay the foundation of the Dune saga ... A terrific read in its own right ... Will inspire readers to turn, or return, to its great predecessor.' Publishers Weekly 19991120
Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson have crafted a masterpiece from the notes, outlines and correspondence Frank Herbert left behind at his death, as well as conversations and brainstorming sessions Brian Herbert held with his father.
