Dune Messiah": The second book in the series follows the aftermath of Paul Atreides' rise to power as the Emperor of the Known Universe. As Emperor of the known universe, he possesses more power than a single man was ever meant to wield.

In opposition, hard-pressed but still fighting back, the Bene Gesserit sisterhood co-ordinate their resistance from their as-yet undiscovered home world, Chapter House. Here are the first six novels of Frank Herbert's magnificent Dune saga--a triumph of the imagination and one of the bestselling science fiction series of all time.Spanning multiple generations and millennia, the series explores themes of power, religion, ecology, and human evolution, set against the backdrop of a desert planet known as Arrakis, or Dune. Humanity has resorted to a delicately balanced feudal system of governance, each aristocratic family struggling for survival, competing for control of a decadent empire. Anderson on numerous prequels and sequels to the Dune novels, which have regularly featured on the New York Times best-seller list. The Legends of Dune trilogy concludes with The Battle of Corrin, which tees up a final apocalyptic showdown between humans and robots.

To become a hero, let alone a messiah, is to cut oneself off from all others; to watch friends sink into worshipers; to loose forces that may be impossible to control; ultimately, after sowing the wind, to reap the whirlwind. Dune seems to me unique among SF novels in the depth of characterisation and the extraordinary detail of the world it creates.

Widely considered one of the greatest works within the sci-fi genre, Dune has been the subject of various film and TV adaptations, including the Academy Award winning 2021 film Dune directed by Denis Villeneuve. Read the series which inspired the 2021 Denis Villeneuve epic film adaptation, Dune, starring Oscar Isaac, Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya and Josh Brolin. The Great Schools of Dune trilogy opens with Sisterhood of Dune, set almost a century after the game-changing Battle of Corrin. When stewardship of Arrakis is transferred to his house, Paul Atreides must travel to the planet's dangerous surface to ensure the future of his family and his people. In Herbert's first sequel, Paul Atreides, now known as Muad'Dib, rules the known universe as the most powerful emperor of all time.
