The Messiah of Dune

Frank Herbert managed to write a lot, but he remains primarily in history as the author of the Dune saga – perhaps the most famous saga in science fiction, translated into dozens of languages and having millions of fans around... the world. The most authoritative science fiction magazine, Locus, recognized Dune, the first novel of the saga about the sandy planet, as the best science fiction novel of all time. In Dune, Frank Herbert achieved the impossible – he created a peculiar chronicle of a distant future.
