Notable Works

Dune House Corrino

Life on other planets, Robots, Fiction

This is a prequel to the famous Dune series written by the authors father Frank Herbert, and is one of a long series of books which pre-date the famous Dune books....others include Dune House Atreides, House Harkonnen, and The Winds of Dune. The various series by Brian Herbert, written after his father's death HAVE HAD A MIXED RECEPTION, some liking the continuation of his father's concept and others feeling the books didn't have the atmospheric feel of the original series and were playing on Frank Herbert's fame

Each pilgrim is determined to be the first to reach God and learn His secrets... if they don't all kill each other on the way there.First time in trade paperback, from the international best-selling author of the Dune books!
