One of the most cult science fiction novels of all time

Frank Herbert (1920–1986) managed to write a lot, but he is primarily remembered in history as the author of the epic "Dune." Perhaps the most famous fantasy saga of the twentieth century, a saga translated into dozens of languages and winning millions of fans worldwide. The most authoritative science fiction magazine, "Locus," recognized "Dune," the first novel of the epic about the sand planet, as the best science fiction novel of all time. In "Dune," Frank Herbert achieved the impossible—creating a unique "chronicle of a distant future." And throughout the history of world fiction, there has been no picture of the future more vivid, more visible, more powerful, and original.
