书籍简介

在《黑客帝国》、《星球大战》、《安德的游戏》和《神经舞者》之前，有一部《沙丘》：著名的雨果奖和星云奖得主，并被广泛认为是有史以来最伟大的科幻小说之一。

Melange，或称 "香料"，是宇宙中最有价值的--也是最稀有的--元素；一种药物，从增加人的寿命到使星际旅行成为可能。而它只能在一个星球上找到：荒凉的沙漠世界阿拉克斯。

谁控制了阿瑞克斯，谁就控制了香料。而谁控制了香料，谁就控制了整个宇宙。

当皇帝把阿瑞克斯星球的管理权从高贵的哈克南家族转移到厄崔迪家族时，哈克南家族进行反击，谋杀了莱托·厄崔迪公爵。他的儿子保罗和他的小妾杰西卡女士逃到了沙漠中。在死亡的边缘，他们被一队弗曼人所救，弗曼人是阿瑞克斯星球的原住民，他们控制着阿瑞克斯星球的第二大资源：钻在燃烧的沙漠沙子下面的巨大蠕虫。

为了给他的父亲报仇，并从哈科能人手中夺回阿瑞克斯星球，保罗必须赢得弗曼人的信任，并带领一支小规模的军队对抗与他们结盟的无数力量。

而他的旅程将改变整个宇宙。

Before The Matrix, before Star Wars, before Ender's Game and Neuromancer, there was Dune: winner of the prestigious Hugo and Nebula awards, and widely considered one of the greatest science fiction novels ever written.

Melange, or 'spice', is the most valuable - and rarest - element in the universe; a drug that does everything from increasing a person's life-span to making intersteller travel possible. And it can only be found on a single planet: the inhospitable desert world Arrakis.

Whoever controls Arrakis controls the spice. And whoever controls the spice controls the universe.

When the Emperor transfers stewardship of Arrakis from the noble House Harkonnen to House Atreides, the Harkonnens fight back, murdering Duke Leto Atreides. Paul, his son, and Lady Jessica, his concubine, flee into the desert. On the point of death, they are rescued by a band for Fremen, the native people of Arrakis, who control Arrakis' second great resource: the giant worms that burrow beneath the burning desert sands.

In order to avenge his father and retake Arrakis from the Harkonnens, Paul must earn the trust of the Fremen and lead a tiny army against the innumerable forces aligned against them.

And his journey will change the universe.
