Description

Press release from the Jefferson County Library: Pamela Withrow October 28, 2021  (Dune #1) 688 pages / 21 hrs, 2 mins "Set on the desert planet Arrakis, Dune is the story of the boy Paul Atreides, heir to a noble family tasked with ruling an inhospitable world where the only thing of value is the "spice" melange, a drug capable of extending life and enhancing consciousness. Coveted across the known universe, melange is a prize worth killing for..."When House Atreides is betrayed, the destruction of Paul's family will set the boy on a journey toward a destiny greater than he could ever have imagined. And as he evolves into the mysterious man known as Muad'Dib, he will bring to fruition humankind's most ancient and unattainable dream." Interesting book and well written. Be warned: the story is pretty dark. I give it four out of five stars. This press release was produced by the Jefferson County Library. The views expressed here are the author's own.
