House Corrino (Prelude 3) - Kevin J. Anderson

House Corrino (Prelude 3) - Kevin J. Anderson The blood feud between Duke Leto of Caladon and Baron Vladimir Harkonnen reaches its climax, as the emperor Shaddam - leader of House Corrino - is finally forced to curb the powerful Harkonnens or risk losing his own throne. Menawhile, Duke Leto's beautiful concubie, the Bene Gesserit temptress Jessica,- has conceived the boy who become Paul Atreides (the hero of Dune), defying the express orders of her superiors. The book culminates in a war - on Dune, on the oppressed planet Ix, in space - that will alter the balance of power for a generation. Review House Atreides is a terrific prequel, but it's also a first-rate adventure on its own. Frank Herbert would surely be delighted and proud of this continuation of his vision. ― Dean Koontz on House AtreidesThose who long to return to the world of desert, spice and sandworms will be amply satisfied. ― The Times on House AtreidesBrian Herbert and Kevin J Anderson succeed in weaving their own intricate saga. Dune: House Atreides does its predecessors justice. ― USA Today on House AtreidesSucceeds admirably ― The New York Times Book review on House HarkonnenHouse Harkonnen is compulsive reading. I certainly enjoyed meeting pardot Kynes and Liet, learning more about the Freman, as well as Gurney Halleck, Duncan Idaho and the Lady Jessica. Such vile villains...and such a fascinating description of splendid places. ― Anne McCaffrey on House Harkonnen About the Author Brian Herbert is a widely-published science fiction novelist. Kevin J.
