Product Information
Brian Herbert has also written "Dreamer of Dune", a biography of his father Frank, and this novel presents a background to the Dune universe. Together with Kevin J. Anderson, he has also written "House Atreides", "House Corrino" and "House Harkonnen".
'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
