Dune: The Duke of Caladan
A legend begins in Dune: The Duke of Caladan, first in The Caladan Trilogy by New York Times bestselling authors Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. Leto Atreides, Duke of Caladan and father of the Muad'Dib. While all know of his fall and the rise of his son, little is known about the quiet ruler of Caladan and his partner Jessica. Or how a Duke of an inconsequential planet earned an emperor's favor, the ire of House Harkonnen, and set himself on a collision course with his own death. This is the story. Through patience and loyalty, Leto serves the Golden Lion Throne. Where others scheme, the Duke of Caladan acts. But Leto's powerful enemies are starting to feel that he is rising beyond his station, and House Atreides rises too high. With unseen enemies circling, Leto must decide if the twin burdens of duty and honor are worth the price of his life, family, and love.

BOKEN BAKOM STORFILMEN!VINNARE AV HUGO AWARD & NEBULA AWARDMelange är det mest eftertraktade ämnet i universum: en drog som kan förlänga människors liv och berika det med ett multidimensionellt medvetande, det sista en förutsättning för navigering under interstellära rymdresor. Melange finns bara på den karga ökenplaneten Arrakis.När kejsaren tar ifrån adelsfamiljen Harkonnen vasallskapet för att i stället ge planeten i förläning till familjen Atreides slår Harkonnen tillbaka och mördar fursten Leto Atreides. Sonen Paul flyr ut i öknen med sin mor lady Jessica och de räddas från att törsta ihjäl av Arrakis ursprungsfolk. Paul måste vinna arrakisfolkets tillit innan han kan leda upproret mot familjen Harkonnen.Berättelsen om kampen om herraväldet över Arrakis är en storslagen och oavbrutet fängslande historia om makthunger, religion, svek, teknologisk övertro och begränsade naturtillgångar. I svensk översättning av Gabriel Setterborg.FRANK HERBERT [1920-1986] var en amerikansk science fiction-författare som publicerade sina första noveller på 1950-talet. Dune, som utkom 1965, betraktas allmänt som en av de främsta romanerna någonsin i genren. Den belönades med både The Hugo Award och The Nebula Award. Vintern 2020 har den nya, stort påkostade filmatiseringen av Dune premiär, i regi av Denis Villeneuve (Prisoners, Sicario).»Kraftfull, övertygande, genialisk.« Robert A. Heinlein»Lika fängslande i sin handling som i sina filosofiska vyer. Ett häpnadsväckande science fiction-fenomen.« Washington Post»Dune är unik. Jag kan inte komma på något annat att jämföra den med än Sagan om ringen.« Arthur C. Clarke

Sjælden førstehåndsberetning: Caroline Fleming fortæller for første gang hele historien om sit turbulente liv som del af den danske elite. Når hendes far satte Neil Diamonds ’Sweet Caroline’ på grammofonen vidste hun, at det ville blive en god aften, når hun som voksen kom på besøg på slottet. Det var som at få den kærlighedspokal, hun havde jagtet hele sin barndom. Andre gange havde hun kvalme af angst over at være tilbage i det hjem, hvor hun siden sine teenageår havde følt sig fejlanbragt; som om storken havde dumpet hende ned i den forkerte familie. Caroline Fleming er født som baronesse og arving til Valdemars Slot. Her fortæller hun for første gang hele historien om sit turbulente liv bag de smukke kulisser. Om et jetsetliv som gift i en af Englands rigeste familier, og om hvordan hun måtte bryde ud af det for ikke at gå til grunde. Om sladder, spiseforstyrrelse og en sen ADHD-diagnose. Og om at miste sin familie og det slot, hun var født til at arve, for i stedet at vinde noget
