And the tale of Crown Prince Shaddam Corrino, whose lust for power leads him to plot the assassination of his own father and to create a plan that will replace the spice and disrupt the Imperium forever . . .

Dune: House Atreides begins the epic worldwide bestselling trilogy that tells of the generation before Dune and sows the seeds of great heroes, vile enemies, and terrible tyrants.

Dune: 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

“Every bit as complex as the original Dune novels.” St. Petersburg Times

Brian Herbert

Brian Herbert, an American novelist, is internationally recognized as the co-author of the “Dune” prequel series. He is the son of science fiction luminary, Frank Herbert, who originally authored the renowned “Dune” series. Born in Seattle, Washington, in 1947, Brian Herbert inherited from his father an obsession with the fantastic and has devoted his life to continuing his father’s legacy and further expanding upon the fascinating universe of “Dune.”

Herbert’s literary career began in 1999, when he collaborated with Kevin J. Anderson to write “House Atreides,” the first novel in the “Dune” series. This established Herbert as an accomplished sci-fi author. His collaboration with Anderson also spawned several other prequels, sequels, and midquels to the original Dune series, all critically acclaimed by fans across the globe for their intricate storytelling and vivid imagination.

Aside from his standout achievement with the “Dune” series, Herbert has also authored other standalone novels and series. His writing style combines scientific rigor with the narrative complexity indicative of his father’s work, helping him cultivate a significant following of his own. His exceptional contribution to the science fiction genre and the lasting impact of his work solidify Herbert’s reputable standing in the realm of speculative fiction.
