The blood feud between Duke Leto of Caladon and Baron Vladimir Harkonnen reaches its climax, as the emperor Shaddam - leader of House Corrino - is finally forced to curb the powerful Harkonnens or risk losing his own throne. Menawhile, Duke Leto's beautiful concubie, the Bene Gesserit temptress Jessica,- has conceived the boy who become Paul Atreides (the hero of Dune), defying the express orders of her superiors. The book culminates in a war - on Dune, on the oppressed planet Ix, in space - that will alter the balance of power for a generation.

Was a enjoyable read. Moved pretty quickly. Did not have some of the depth of original series, but still worth the time for me.
J'ai apprécié la lecture de ce troisième et dernier volume de la trilogie “Prélude à Dune”. Contrairement aux deux volumes précédents, j'avais peu de souvenirs de ma première lecture de celui-ci et j'en ai redécouvert l'intrigue avec plaisir. A nouveau, cela n'a pas la profondeur du cycle Dune de Frank Herbert, mais cela reste une lecture intéressante et plaisante.
