Description
Dune is a science fiction novel by Frank Herbert, originally published in 1965. It is the first installment of the Dune saga, and is frequently cited as the best-selling science fiction novel in history. Set in the distant future amidst a huge interstellar empire, Dune tells the story of young Paul Atreides, whose family accepts the stewardship of the desert planet Arrakis. As the only source of the 'spice' melange, the most important and valuable substance in the universe, control of Arrakis is a coveted—and dangerous—undertaking. The story explores themes of politics, religion, and man's relationship to nature.
