“Characters are imbued with heroic voices, delivering colorful cadences that catch the ear. Scenes are masterfully undergirded by mounting tension and sinister manipulation. . . . [Scott] Brick turns in a rewarding performance.”—AudioFile on Dune: The Duke of Caladan

In Dune: The Heir of Caladan, the climactic novel in the Caladan trilogy by New York Times bestselling authors Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson, we step into the shoes of Paul Atreides. A boy not yet a man in years, he is about to enter a world he could never have imagined.

The story that began with Duke Leto Atreides's rise to power, then continued with the consequences of Lady Jessica’s betrayal, will now conclude with Paul becoming the leader that he needs to be on the way to his pivotal role as Muad’Dib.

Any Dune fan will devour this tale of a legend coming into his own.

Featured Article: Here’s everything to expect in Dune: Part Two


Sci-fi fans everywhere were over the moon when it was announced that critically acclaimed director Denis Villeneuve would be directing a film adaptation of Dune, the classic science fiction novel by Frank Herbert. It was the third time Herbert's epic has been adapted for the screen, but it's the first time the story was split into two parts—opening up opportunities to further explore the iconic characters and imaginative world Herbert created.

I often dislike prequels after knowing what is going to come, but across these three books I couldn’t wait to hear how the story progressed and got to the Dune I read as a kid and so recently enjoyed the new cinematic undertaking. Loved it and am going to listen to more of the back story of this universe expanded by Brian Herbert.

A well done ending to the prequel for his father’s series Dune, tying the stories together! I want to say more but I recommend just reading/listening to the books. I can’t say enough!

Amazing!

I want to experience Dune again. This series loads up Dune like a shotgun cartridge ready to explode. It added meat to the storyline of why Duke Leto was so respected. It is a great addition to the tapestry of the Dune saga.

I really like the extreme detail the authors bring to these stories. What will come next?

A nice prequel to fill in the story lines

All around great addition with two caveats:
1.) Authors spent too much time rehashing/reviewing/retelling previous parts of the book; time that would have been better spent addressing:
2.) Despite leading directly into the events of the original Dune, the REASON(s) why Emperor Shadam betrayed his cousin, Duke Leto are even less clear than before. As I drew closer to the end of the story, I kept expecting something to happen that would clarify it, but alas, still no clear explanation, (or even a clear hint) as to why.
other than the above, I throughly enjoyed the book and recommend it to all Dune fans!

Another Great Addition To The Dune Universe

I enjoyed this novel as it explained why did Jessica wait so long to have a daughter, why did the Atreides get Dune from the Harkonnens and some great insight into CHOAM as it has always been a mystery.

The development of story and character are brought to life in a riveting and enjoyable performance.

A great book in its own right, and an impressive chapter in an amazing series.

I’m fairly confident Scott Brick burps at this time stamp. I don’t want this removed. This isn’t a complaint. It’s wonderful.
