The Novel of Dune
Dune is a science fiction novel written by Frank Herbert, which takes place in the distant future. It was first published in the year 1965 and is considered the most popular novel of American science fiction. The novels are set in the distant future when humanity has fled from a polluted and devastated Earth to settle on a new world called Arrakis. This barren and dry planet is a center for interstellar trade, where every kind of spice brings high prices.
It’s an important historical land, where a family, the Atreides, rules, and battles with rival houses for control of the spice. But eventually, one of them has to win and become the leader of Arrakis. There is also a prophecy that a great Padishah Emperor would rise from the Leto Atreides line and rule Arrakis for eternity. This is where Dune by Frank Herbert becomes an important part of this science fiction story.
