A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The universal computer mind Omnius has retreated to its last stronghold, where it plots a devastating new strategy that could undo the victories of the Butlerian Jihad. The surviving Titans are creating new lieutenants to do their will when at last they return to attack the human beings they once ruled.

In the years of peace too many of mankind have forgotten that their machine enemies never sleep.

But some have forgotten nothing - and learned from their triumphs. The brilliant military commander Vorian Atreides, son of a Titan, has the gift of long life from his terrifying father and knows the machines' minds better than any man alive. Norma Cenva, the genius inventor of humanity's best defences, dreams of new discoveries that will make man invincible.

And on the windswept desert planet Arrakis, the power that can give them victory waits.

Revue de presse :

'HOUSE HARKONNEN is compulsive reading. I certainly enjoyed meeting Pardot Kynes and Liet, learning more about the Freman, as well as Gurney Halleck, Duncan Idaho and the Lady Jessica. Such vile villains ... and such a fascinating description of splendid places.' (Anne McCaffrey on HOUSE HARKONNEN)

'HOUSE ATREIDES is a terrific prequel, but it's also a first-rate adventure on its own. 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)

'If you're familiar with the Dune universe it is oddly compelling. This is a successful space opera that spins in a few genuine surprises.' Focus on THE BATTLE OF CORRIN (2005-03-01)
