Dune by Frank Herbert [DUNE #1]

25TH ANNIVERSARY PAPERBACK [1990] ACE SCIENCE FICTION

Solid reading copy with some heavy wear to cover.  Pages are clean and read nicely. 


Set in the far future amidst a sprawling feudal interstellar empire where planetary dynasties are controlled by noble houses that owe an allegiance to the imperial House Corrino, Dune tells the story of young Paul Atreides (the heir apparent to Duke Leto Atreides and heir of House Atreides) as he and his family accept control of the desert planet Arrakis, the only source of the 'spice' melange, the most important and valuable substance in the cosmos. The story explores the complex, multi-layered interactions of politics, religion, ecology, technology, and human emotion as the forces of the empire confront each other for control of Arrakis.
