Synopsis "Dune: The Graphic Novel, Book 1: Dune: Deluxe Collector'S Edition (Volume 1)"

The first graphic novel adaptation of Dune, the groundbreaking science-fiction classic by Frank Herbert--now in a deluxe collector's edition Dune, Frank Herbert's epic science-fiction masterpiece set in the far future amidst a sprawling feudal interstellar society, tells the story of Paul Atreides as he and his family accept control of the desert planet Arrakis. A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism, and politics, Dune is a powerful, fantastical tale that takes an unprecedented look into our universe, and is transformed by the graphic novel format. Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson's adaptation retains the integrity of the original novel, and Raúl Allén and Patricia Martín's magnificent illustrations, along with cover art by Bill Sienkiewicz, bring the book to life for a new generation of readers. A national bestseller, Dune: The Graphic Novel, is now available in a deluxe collector's edition with an increased trim size of 7 1/2" x 11 1/4", printed on high-quality matte art paper in a faux-cloth slipcase with gold foil stamping tip-on cover.

La primera obra de la saga, Dune, supuso un auténtico fenómeno literario y obtuvo los premios Nébula y Hugo, además del Premio Internacional de Fantasía, que compartió con El señor de las moscas de William Golding. Falleció el 11 de febrero de 1986. El resto de entregas de la saga son: El mesías de Dune, Hijos de Dune, Dios emperador de Dune, Herejes de Dune y Casa Capitular: Dune.
