Synopsis "Dune: The Graphic Novel, Book 3: The Prophet: Volume 3"

The highly anticipated finale of the graphic novel adaptation of Frank Herbert's 1965 novel Dune comes to an epic conclusion in DUNE: The Graphic Novel, Book 3: The Prophet. The final battle for Arrakis is swiftly approaching. Paul Atriedes has accepted his role as the leader of the Fremen but knows his power over them teeters on the brink--they will either take back their planet or lead a jihad that will consume the entire cosmos. Lady Jessica has become a Reverend Mother and must balance her support of her son with the expectations of the Bene Gesserit Order. Meanwhile, Baron Harkonnen has continued to groom his cunning nephew, Feyd-Rautha, to rule the desert planet. All their destinies collide in an epic finale that will change Arrakis--and the universe--forever. Brian Herbert, son of Frank Herbert, and New York Times bestselling author Kevin J. Anderson conclude their faithful adaptation of the novel Dune with Paul's manifestation of his great and terrible purpose. Once more, illustrators Raúl Allén and Patricia Martín transport readers to the Dune universe in this visual masterpiece that blends classic science fiction with contemporary comics storytelling.
