DUNE THE BUTLERIAN JIHAD PB

Herbert, Brian

Εκδότης Hodder & Stoughton , ISBN 9780340823323


It began in the Time of Tyrants, when ambitious men and women used high-powered computers to seize control of the heart of the Old Empire including Earth itself. The tyrants translated their brains into mobile mechanical bodies and created a new race, the immortal man-machine hybrids called cymeks. Then the cymeks' world-controlling planetary computers - each known as Omnius - seized control from their overlords and a thousand years of brutal rule by the thinking machines began.



But their world faces disaster. Impatient with human beings' endless disobedience and the cymeks' continual plotting to regain their power, Omnius has decided that it no longer needs them. Only victory can save the human race from extermination.

Συγγραφέας

O Brian Herbert, γιος του Frank Herbert, είναι ο συγγραφέας πολλών διάσημων βιβλίων επιτημονικής φαντασίας, στα οποία περιλαμβάνονται τα "Sidney's Comet", "Sudanna, Sudanna", "Prisoners of Arionn", "The Race for God" και "Man of Two Worlds" (γραμμένο μαζί με τον Frank Herbert). Έχει γράψει επίσης το "Dreamer of Dune", μια ολοκληρωμένη βιογραφία του διάσημου πατέρα του. FRANK HERBERT, who created Dune, was born in 1920 and spent most of his early life in the Pacific Northwest of America. He was a professional photographer, journalist and occasional oyster-diver; he also had stints as a radio news commentator and jungle survival instructor. BRIAN HERBERT, his son, is a widely-published science fiction author in his own right. This is his first novel to call on his father's work: previously, he has created his own worlds, sometimes in collaboration. He has also written Dreamer of Dune, a comprehensive biography of his illustrious father. KEVIN J. ANDERSON is best known for his world-wide best-selling novels based on the universes of Star Wars and the X Files: he has been a Sunday Times number one bestseller. He is also the author of several more critically-acclaimed original novels. An expert on the US space programme, he worked at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory for ten years.
