About this listen

The authors of Prelude to Dune have written the triumphant climax to the history of the Dune universe: the story most eagerly anticipated by its listeners.

The universal computer mind Omnius has retreated to its last stronghold, where it plots a devastating new strategy that could undo the victories of the Butlerian Jihad. The surviving Titans are creating new lieutenants to do their will when at last they return to attack the human beings they once ruled. In the years of peace too many of mankind have forgotten that their machine enemies never sleep. But some have forgotten nothing - and learned from their triumphs. The brilliant military commander Vorian Atreides, son of a Titan, has the gift of long life from his terrifying father and knows the machines' minds better than any man alive. Norma Cenva, the genius inventor of humanity's best defences, dreams of new discoveries that will make man invincible. And on the windswept desert planet Arrakis, the power that can give them victory waits.

Critic Reviews

"If you're familiar with the Dune universe it is oddly compelling. This is a successful space opera that spins in a few genuine surprises." (Locus)

The prequel prime. this is where the story of Dune came to be. The origins of the great houses, why there is no A.I. In the futuristic dystopia that is the known Universe all the questions a fan can ask are answered. If you are a fan of Frank Herbet and the Dune universe then you as I will love this trilogy. the battle of corrin is the breathtaking finale to a truly well rounded prequilogy.

Conflicts in details between chapters. Writing often repeating to remind of previous events takes away from story immersion. I like reminders but this was too much. Overall a good story rounding out the battle of Corrin.

Good voice acting
