Dune Set on the desert planet Arrakis, Dune is the story of the boy Paul Atreides, heir to a noble family tasked with ruling an inhospitable world where the only thing of value is the ?spice? melange, a drug capable of extending life and enhancing consciousness. Coveted across the known universe, melange is a prize worth killing for? Signed by Brian Herbert, Michael Swanwick, and Mark Molnar, with a family approved facsimile signature by Frank Herbert. Dune Messiah It's been twelve years since the teenage Paul Atreides filled the void left by his slain father, the Duke Leto, and seized his own destiny, leading the people of Arrakis to victory over the vile Harkonnens. But now, Paul is no longer the boy wonder fated to rid the desert planet of foreign invaders and restore peace and prosperity. For he's the emperor. A God among men. The ordained messiah of the Fremen. And he's on a collision course for galactic domination - whether he wants it or not. Signed by Gregory Benford and Marc Simonetti with a family approved facsimile signature by Frank Herbert. Children of Dune It is nine years after the events of Dune Messiah and the interplanetary jihad unleashed in Paul ?Muad?Dib? Atredies? name has continued unabated. His sister, Alia, rules the empire with an iron fist. Paul?s twins, Leto and Ghanima, are now orphans. Something is rotten on planet Arrakis. Signed by David Wingrove and Paolo Puggioni with a family approved facsimile signature by Frank Herbert. God Emperor of Dune in God Emperor of Dune, the Atreides saga comes to a thrilling conclusion in a story at once intimate as an inner voice and expansive as the history of political thought. An intellectual tour de force, Frank Herbert imagines the distant future in order to plumb our past, searching for answers to age-old questions: How should we be governed? What role, if any, should religion play in statecraft? Are immoral, even wanton acts ever justified, even when they produce the most well-being for all? Signed by David Brin with a family approved facsimile signature by Frank Herbert. Heretics of Dune Five thousand years after the events of Dune, humanity has scattered to the edges of the known universe. The Golden Path laid out by the late Leto II Atreides has led to freedom and prosperity. Sandworms again thrive, producing the all-important spice melange. The future seems as bright as the recent past until the arrival of a horrifying new threaten all. Signed by Nancy Kress and Chris McGrath with a family approved facsimile signature by Frank Herbert. Chapter-House Dune It is thousands of years in the future. Dune itself is no more; the planet has been destroyed by the Honored Matres. The enormously powerful group of women is a dark mirror of the Bene Gesserit, seeking power while that other group seeks enlightenment and to survive. 500 copies with a family-approved facsimile signature by Frank Herbert.
