BOOK SUMMARY
The third book in Frank Herberts original Dune series

BOOK SYNOPSIS
The bestselling science fiction series of all time continues! In this third installment, the sand-blasted world of Arrakis has become green, watered and fertile. Old Paul Atreides, who led the desert Fremen to political and religious domination of the galaxy, is gone. But for the children of Dune, the very blossoming of their land contains the seeds of its own destruction. The altered climate is destroying the giant sandworms, and this in turn is disastrous for the planets economy. Leto and Ghanima, Paul Atreidess twin children and his heirs, can see possible solutionsbut fanatics begin to challenge the rule of the all-powerful Atreides empire, and more than economic disaster threatens...
