Dune Messiah

Set twelve years after the events of *Dune*, Frank Herbert's *Dune Messiah* continues the epic saga of Paul Atreides, known across the cosmos as Muad'Dib. Now Emperor, Paul must contend with the immense political, religious, and social consequences of his rise to power and his prescient vision. He faces conspiracies from the Spacing Guild, the Bene Tleilaxu, and the Bene Gesserit, all seeking to dethrone him or harness his power. As the Fremen's support is tested and his relationship with Chani evolves, Paul navigates treachery and irony, ultimately confronting the complex burden of deification and trying to secure the future of the Atreides line.
