A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

After the reign of Muad'Dib, an empire begins to crumble.
Paul Muad'Dib - hailed as a hero, worshipped as a messiah, hated as a tyrant - has vanished into the endless deserts of the planet Dune, leaving his turbulent empire without guidance. Now it is up to his young sister Alia and his formidable mother, the Lady Jessica, aided by a handful of loyal allies, to keep humanity from tearing itself apart.
Working with Princess Irulan, Jessica tries to uncover the truth about her son. As the winds of rebellion and treachery brew, she discovers that Muad'Dib may have knowlingly planted the seeds of his own downfall. And that the rebel Bronso of Ix has a secret mission of his own, one that will force Jessica to choose between the memory of her son and the future of the human race.
Frank Herbert would surely be delighted and proud at this continuation of hs vision'

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Between the end of Frank Herbert's DUNE and his next novel, DUNE MESSIAH, lies an intriguing mystery: how a hero adored by a planet became a tyrant hated by a universe.
Paul Atreides is the man who overthrew a corrupt empire and then launched a terrible jihad across the galaxy, shedding the blood of trillions. The now-hated tyrant, the blind emperor Paul Muad'Dib, has walked off into the endless desert of the planet Arrakis, known as Dune, leaving his turbulent empire without guidance.
It's up to his mother Jessica, with her daughter Alia, the brave troubadour-warrior Gurney Halleck, the resurrected Duncan Idaho, the Fremen leader Stilgar, as well as Paul's wife-in-name and biographer, Princess Irulan, to try and hold an empire together even as it tears itself apart from within and without.
