Several millennia have passed since the previous book in the series, “God Emperor of Dune,” took place. During this time, humanity, as predicted by God Emperor Leto II, now called the Tyrant, has spread to countless planets. This process is called the Scattering, and the travelers themselves have become the Lost Ones.
But the Lost Ones have begun to return en masse to the Old Empire, the homeland of their ancestors. Is this evidence of a terrible danger threatening humanity, which the Tyrant also foresaw? Yes, at least, so the heroes of the book believe. These are Taraza and Odrade, the leaders of the Bene Gesserit. Miles Tag, a pupil of the Sisterhood and its best military leader. Another Duncan Idaho, endowed with abilities inaccessible to all his ghola predecessors. And the desert orphan Shiana, who knows how to command giant worms.
They are all united by their Atreides genetic and mental heritage, as well as the fact that they are all Heretics of Dune.
The reader is presented with the fifth and penultimate novel of one of the most famous series in the history of world fiction.
