  • Description:
    As the no-ship Ithaca" flees through space, the heroes of HUNTERS OF DUNE finally meet the Enemy who followed the violent fanatics, the Honored Matres, back to their universe. The thinking machines vanquished by Serena Butler's jihad were not destroyed, only driven into exile - and now, tens of thousands of years later, they are back. Can the resurrected heroes on board the Ithaca" save our race from annihilation? From the Publisher Frank Herbert's last novel, CHAPTER HOUSE: DUNE ends on a cliffhanger. This novel, and SANDWORMS OF DUNE, which will follow a year later, will answer the questions that all fans have been asking since his death. From the Back Cover When Frank Herbert died in 1986, the epic he began with Dune and continued to Chapterhouse: Dune remained unfinished. For twenty years, millions of fans were left with a cliffhanger - until now. Working from his last outline, Frank Herbert's son Brian and Kevin J. Anderson have at last completed the chronological grand finale to the saga. Sandworms of Dune is the conclusion to the epic, finishing the story as the original author intended. The foe that humanity believed to be long defeated has reappeared from the edge of the universe - and mankind's last defenders fear that nothing can stop it now. Slaughtering whole planets with biological plagues, the terrible Enemy accidentally reawakened by the Honored Matres approaches ever closer to Chapterhouse, where Mother Commander Murbella and her combined force of Bene Gesserit and Honored Matres desperately gather their every defence to stop its advance. Meanwhile, Sheanna's no-ship flees from both Murbella and the Enemy, carrying the last surviving sandworms from Arrakis and the reborn heroes of past ages, including Paul Atreides himself. One of them is the ultimate Kwisach Haderach - the messiah who will change the world in ways that no-one can predict. But far away on a horribly altered Caladan, the Enemy seeks to create a Kwisach Haderach of its own. About the Author Frank Herbert, one of the greatest science fiction authors, died in 1986. His son Brian Herbert is a widely-published science fiction novelist in his own right. Kevin J. Anderson's novels include bestsellers based on the universes of Star Wars and The X Files. Together they created PRELUDE TO DUNE, LEGENDS OF DUNE and THE ROAD TO DUNE, all bestsellers set in the universe created by Frank Herbert.
