The Battle of Corrin
Following their internationally bestselling novels Dune: The Butlerian Jihad and Dune: The Machine Crusade, Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson forge a final tumultuous finish to their prequels to Frank Herbert's Dune... Dune: The Battle of Corrin.
It has been fifty-six hard years since the events of The Machine Crusade.
Following the death of Serena Butler, the bloodiest decades of the
Jihad take place. Synchronized Worlds and Unallied Planets are
liberated one by one, and at long last, after years of victory, the
human worlds begin to hope that the end of the centuries-long conflict
with the thinking machines is finally in sight.
Unfortunately,
Omnius has one last, deadly card to play. In a last-ditch effort to
destroy humankind, virulent plagues are let loose throughout the
galaxy, decimating the populations of whole planets... and once
again, the tide of the titanic struggle shifts against the warriors of
the human race. At last, the war that has lasted many lifetimes will be
decided in the apocalyptic Battle of Corrin.
In the greatest
battle in science fiction history, human and machine face off one last
time... And on the desert planet of Arrakis, the legendary Fremen
of Dune become the feared fighting force to be discovered by Paul
Maud'Dib in Frank Herbert's classic, Dune.
