Synopsis "Mesias de Dune"

Arrakis es un mundo desierto, en pos del sueño de convertirse en un paraíso, y cuna de mil guerras que se han extendido por todo el universo. Paul Atreides, proclamado doce años antes gobernante de los Fremen mediante una guerra santa, es un personaje perturbado por la sombra dominante de su hermana Alia y por el culto a su propia persona y mito. Frente a él se hallan los grandes intereses económicos, políticos y religiosos que sacuden las esferas de influencia del hombre: la Choam, la cofradía espacial, el Landsraad, la Bene Gesserit. . . Todo ello conformando una poderosa trama conspiratoria. Frank Herbert es uno de los mejores autores de ciencia ficción de todos los tiempos. Con esta segunda novela, el laureado autor nos acerca mucho más al devenir histórico, político y religioso del universo de Dune.

Frank Patrick Herbert was born in Tacoma, Washington (1920). Before turning to science fiction, he had various jobs, from photographer and TV cameraman to oyster fisherman. In 1965, he introduced the book series The Dune Chronicles, which was critically acclaimed and popular, describing an imaginary world with its own politics, ecology, and social structure.

The first book of the saga, Dune, was a true literary phenomenon and won the Nebula and Hugo Awards, as well as the International Fantasy Award, which he shared with Lord of the Flies by William Golding. He died on February 11, 1986. The rest of the saga includes: Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse: Dune.
