About this product

Product Information

With their usual skill, Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson have taken ideas left behind by Frank Herbert and filled them with living characters and a true sense of wonder. Where Paul of Dune picked up the saga directly after the events of Dune , The Winds of Dune begins after the events of Dune Messiah . Paul has walked off into the sand, blind, and is presumed dead. Jessica and Gurney are on Caladan; Alia is trying to hold the Imperial government together with Duncan; Mohiam dead at the hands of Stilgar; Irulan imprisoned. Paul's former friend, Bronso of Ix, now seems to be leading opposition to the House of Atreides. Herbert and Anderson's newest book in this landmark series will concentrate on these characters as well the growing battle between Jessica, and her daughter, Alia.

A portrayal of an alien society more complete and deeply detailed than any other author in the field has managed . . . a story absorbing equally for its action and philosophical vistas. . . . An astonishing science fiction phenomenon., This vital link between the first two books of the Dune saga begins immediately after the close of Dune. . . . This is good reading. . . . Standing well enough on its own for Dune novices, it goes without saying that it's must reading for established fans., Praise forThe Winds of Dune: "The Winds of Duneis filled with the same psychological complexities that were a hallmark of Frank Herbert's books. It twists and turns on matters of trust, loyalty and the meaning of honor. Familiar characters are brought back to life with poignant clarity and the suspense and tension never let up.

    I ALWAYS ENJOY THE DUNE STORIES. YOU NEED TO BE FAMILIAR WITH THE STORY LINE TO ENJOY THESE BOOKS. IF YOU ARE, THEY ARE FUN TO READ, IF YOU ARE NOT YOU CAN GET LOST BECAUSE THEY HAVE A WIDE SPECTRUM OF CHARACTERS AND PLACES BUT THEY ARE ALWAYS INTERESTING AND MAKES YOU WANT TO FIND THE NEXT BOOK

  • I love my book.

    I am an avid sci-fi fan. This was the only Dune book I had not yet added to my collection. The book condition was as advertised. The price was well within acceptable range.

  • The Winds of Dune

    being a long time fan of the dune series i picked this up right away. while entertaining , it isnt as gripping as some of the previous books. this book focuses on jessica after the dissapearance of paul atreides.worth reading , but not my favorite dune book.
