À propos de cet audio
With their usual skill, Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson have taken ideas left behind by Frank Herbert and filled them with living characters and a true sense of wonder. Where Paul of Dune picked up the saga directly after the events of Dune, The Winds of Dune begins after the events of Dune Messiah. Paul has walked off into the sand, blind, and is presumed dead.
Jessica and Gurney are on Caladan; Alia is trying to hold the Imperial government together with Duncan; Mohiam dead at the hands of Stilgar; Irulan imprisoned. Paul's former friend, Bronso of Ix, now seems to be leading opposition to the House of Atreides. Herbert and Anderson's newest book in this landmark series will concentrate on these characters as well the growing battle between Jessica, and her daughter, Alia.

Another excellent addition to the Dune Series
I am glad the authors created another intermediary book, providing the details needed to fill much need gaps in the overarching Dune Saga.
It takes place after Emporer Muad'dib's departure into the desert, leaving the emperium in the hands of his Regent and sister, Alia of the Knife. Now that the Emporer has left, there is an immense power vacuum in the Emperium which the Regent is trying to consolidate power.
Lady Jessica arrives with Gurney Halleck to help smooth things over with Regent Alia and her deadly Fremen Justice. She also works to rebuild her relationship with her daughter as well as come to terms with her Son and his rule as emperor.
The Corrino's wait on the sidelines to make their move upon a weekend Regent.
Princess Irulan navigates the aftermath, seeking a way to strengthen her resolve and find a new way to fit in a deadly landscape that seems to have no need of her. Once again she is balancing on the edge of a cliff.
And further revelations are brought forth as Bronso of Ix works desperately to unravel Muad'dib's Godly image and bring light to the fact that he was still just a man.
In the end, it's hard not to viewMuad'dib's life as a tragedy. He shouldered a responsibility for humanity that was unfathomable to everyone else. In the end the, his greatest weapon, his prescients, became his greatest weakness.
What was the point of all that death? Couldn't he have been the benevolent and just ruler that he was taught to be, ushering a new age of peace and prosperity for the human race? At least for a period of time. Who knows? We know that Paul's choices eventually led to Leto II to shoulder the responsibility of humanity, following the fabled 'Golden Path', which effectively reverses the expansion of the Jihad.
