The last book Frank Herbert wrote before his death: A stunning climax to the epic Dune legend that will live on forever.
The desert planet Arrakis, called Dune, has been destroyed. Now, the Bene Gesserit, heirs to Dune’s power, have colonized a green world—and are tuning it into a desert, mile by scorched mile. Chapterhouse Dune is the last book Frank Herbert wrote before his death: A stunning climax to the epic Dune legend that will live on forever.
FRANK HERBERT was born in Tacoma, Washington, and educated at the University of Washington, Seattle. He worked a wide variety of jobs – including TV cameraman, radio commentator, oyster diver, jungle survival instructor, lay analyst, creative writing teacher, reporter, and editor of several West Coast newspapers – before becoming a full-time writer.
"Even if you've already read the entire series (or heard another version), the great production and voice work in this release makes it worth the time spent listening. Like me, you'll probably gain some additional insights after hearing Macmillan Audio's rendition of this classic."--SF Site "...the talented cast—Euan Morton, Katherine Kellgren, Scott Brick and Simon Vance—do yeoman's labor. Each reads from a different point of view, a move that could easily be confusing but for the superb direction."--Publishers Weekly "This science-fiction novel works exceptionally well as a full-cast recording…Simon Vance helps listeners conjure vivid mind pictures from Herbert’s poetic descriptions.” – AudioFile "Euan Morton, Katherine Kellgren, Scott Brick and Simon Vance do an excellent job of distinguishing the wide variety of male and female characters involved in this episode... [I] recommend that other Dune fans try the audiobooks." - Bookloons.com Publisher: Macmillan Audio Distributor: MPS Publication Date: 02-17-2009 Measurements: 5.910in X 5.160in X 1.545in
