The finale of the Schools of Dune trilogy continues the origin stories of the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood, the human-computer Mentats, and the Spacing Guild Navigators as well as the battle for the future of the human race. In a story set 10,000 years before the classic Dune, we discover the origins of the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood and its breeding program, the human-computer Mentats, and the Navigators (the Spacing Guild). Roderick Corrino is forced to take the throne after the assassination of his brother. He knows that the Navigators are the key to charting a glorious future for humanity... or the end of civilization. |
