The definitive graphic novel adaptation of Dune, the groundbreaking science-fiction classic by Frank Herbert
Dune, Frank Herbert’s epic science-fiction masterpiece set in the far future amidst a sprawling feudal interstellar society, tells the story of Paul Atreides as he and his family accept control of the desert planet Arrakis. A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism, and politics, Dune is a powerful, fanstastical tale that takes an unprecedented look into our universe, and is transformed by the graphic novel format. Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson’s adaptation retains the integrity of the original novel, and Raúl Allén and Patricia Martín’s magnificent illustrations, along with cover art by Bill Sienkiewicz, bring the book to life for a new generation of readers.

Well worth the wait in arriving an interesting version which will never please everyone overall pleased with the artwork and the story telling. A premium product that perhaps cries out for a bigger page size its comic book size is ok but deserves something larger look forward to the future volumes as well

Art was dull for my taste, hard to differentiate characters if you weren’t already a fan. I bought it hoping my kids would like it but didnt bother as it is very wordy and hardly any action. Only new take for existing fans is the baron has been drawn like he might actually be powerful. Novel isn’t that long so was also surprised that multiple books will be required. I was probably hoping for too much.

this is a solidly made hardback with DJ that feels well made. its in full colour and nicely illustrated, although i guess the appreciation of art is subjective. i have read the Dune series of book/comics/seen the fil/tv series so i know what to expect and this is a nice adaptation of the original book as a graphic novel. i am aboard for volume two.

I love the book and I found this graphic novel covers it quite faithfully. Art, colours and writing all good. Worth a read!
by Mr Lee R Werrin
Absolutely fantastic visual interpretation of the first part of Dune. Faithful, comprehensive and with great art that really immerses you in this wonderful story. I cannot wait for the next installment. Highly recommended.

I’m going to repeat what a lot of others have said about this. A great and faithful adaptation of the book Dune. I really enjoyed this read and the graphics are pretty cool also. The cover and pages feel great in my hand as I read this. The dust jacket is stunning (front and back) as is the image of the sandworm. I recommend this for any Dune fan to have as part of their collection. I’m so glad I have this. I love it!

The graphic novel was delivered in good condition and on time.
by Retro Brit
I thought this was a very good first part of the story. I hope the follow up is equally as good. I’m sure it will be. On that basis, I would like to highly recommend this graphic novel.
