Chapterhouse Dune

One of science fiction's greatest creators, Frank Herbert was born in Tacoma, Washington, and educated at the University of Washington, Seattle. He worked a wide variety of jobs-including TV cameraman, radio commentator, oyster diver, jungle survival instructor, lay analyst, creative writing teacher, reporter and editor for several West Coast newspapers-before becoming a full-time writer. In 1952, Herbert began publishing science fiction with "Looking for Something?" in Startling Stories, then followed up with a number of short stories for other SF magazines. His novel The Dragon in the Sea (1956) was very favorably received, but his true emergence as a writer of major stature did not occur until 1965, with the publication of Dune. A stunning blend of science fact and fiction, environmentalism, and politics, Dune won the first Nebula award, shared the Hugo award, and formed the basis of what is undoubtedly the grandest epic in science fiction. Chapterhouse: Dune marks the sixth and final volume of this phenomenal series. Frank Herbert's death in 1986 was a tragic loss, yet the astounding legacy of his visionary fiction will live forever...Herbert, Frank is the author of 'Chapterhouse Dune' with ISBN 9780441102679 and ISBN 0441102670.
