À propos de cet audio

Continuing the events leading up to Frank Herbert's immortal Dune saga, the exciting conclusion to this trilogy finds the cruel Tleilaxu overlords on Ix manufacturing a synthetic form of amal to supplant the spice from Dune. If amal is accepted, Emperor Shaddam IV will gain absolute power. But if the plot of the Imperial House Corrino succeeds, the result may be the end of civilization itself.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"[A] fully satisfying conclusion (after Dune: House Atreides and Dune: House Harkonnen) to the authors' "House" trilogy....The inevitable derivative features aside, this is a good, steady, enjoyable tale, and readers who haven't read the first two books can easily follow the plot." ( Publishers Weekly)
"[T]his complex and compelling tale of dynastic intrigue and high drama adds a significant chapter to the classic Dune saga. Highly recommended." ( Library Journal)

This prequel trilogy is one of my favourite works of Fiction of all time. The original series is also excellent, and obviously the origination of this, but I think I enjoy these three even more.

One of the all time greats.

Usually I have found the 2nd books in these prequel trilogies to be the best. That is not the case here.
There were many surprises with how events unfolded to the end of this book!
With knowing that these specific stories will eventually lead up to the events of the original Dune, the conclusions of events in this book set up the conditions for the plot to grant the feifdom of Arrakas to House Atredies.

Couldn't put this one down.

An expertly weaved conclusion to this epic multithread masterful trilogy. Herbert and Anderson really out did themselves. The storylines and character development expertly sets the stage for the dynamics between the great houses in the original

An excellent woven tapestry

The final book in this DUNE trilogy is filled with all the politics, conspiracy, betrayal, espionage, and chance encounters that I expect from the universe. It was exciting to see all the characters cross paths in unexpected and often tense ways.

The characters all have their time in the spotlight as the Emperor attempts to overthrow the current spice operations on Arrakis. This of course results in eventual chaos and destruction, though the heroes of House Atredies are not without their strengths.

Once again, my favourite character was Jessica, as she grappled with her choice versus her destiny.

HOUSE CORRINO does not shy away from bloodshed or death, and it gets incredibly brutal at some points. However, the plot is filled with all sorts of plots and schemes, with some Houses coming close to entirely unraveling, that it remained action-packed and compelling.

This is a great book for readers new to the DUNE universe who don’t want something as dense as the original series yet. I truly enjoyed it and look forward to reading more books set in this fascinating and one-of-a-kind world.

A Thrilling And Dramatic Finale

loved the story but same issue as with last: far future accents are not going to sound like current ones. 😕 I found myself distracted from the words themselves whenever the narrator would use one.
