Synopsis
The definitive graphic novel adaptation of Dune, the groundbreaking science-fiction classic by Frank Herbert
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 is a powerful, fanstastical tale that takes an unprecedented look into our universe, and is transformed by the graphic novel format.
Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson's adaptation retains the integrity of the original novel, and Raul Allen and Patricia Martin's magnificent illustrations, along with cover art by Bill Sienkiewicz, bring the book to life for a new generation of readers.
