Critics Review
‘those who long to return to the world of desert, spice and sandworms will be amply satisfied.’
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 Atreides
Those 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 HarkonnenAbout The Author
