About this book

Twelve years after the events of Dune, Paul Atreides rules the known universe as Emperor, and his Fremen warriors have carried a holy war across the stars. He sees what is coming, and cannot stop it.

A conspiracy of enemies plots to bring him down, and uses a Tleilaxu ghola of his old friend Duncan Idaho to do it, while Paul's wife Chani is pregnant and his sister Alia grows more dangerous. The second book of Frank Herbert's Dune series, a darker novel about power and prophecy.
