It is difficult to be married to an author, more
challenging
in many ways than the writing task itself.
For their sacrifices,
for their unconditional love and patience,
this book,
like others, is dedicated to our remarkable
wives,
JANET HERBERT and
REBECCA MOESTA ANDERSON.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
While we are busy writing new novels in the
incredible Dune universe, many other people
contribute to what the reader sees on the
printed page. We would like to thank Tor
Books, Simon & Schuster U.K., WordFire
Inc., the Frank Herbert family, Trident Media
Group, New Amsterdam Entertainment,
and Misher Films for their contributions and
support. As always, we are especially grateful
to Frank Herbert, who left the most remarkable
literary legacy in all of science fiction,
and to Beverly Herbert, who devoted so
much of her own talents and energy to the
success of the series.

To the Fremen, he is the Messiah;
To the vanquished, he is the Tyrant;
To the Bene Gesserit, he is the Kwisatz
Haderach;
But Paul is
my son
and always will be,
no matter how far he falls.
LADY JESSICA
, Duchess of Caladan
The Emperor Paul-Muad‟Dib survived
a major assassination attempt when a
stone-burner robbed him of his eyesight.
Though blind, he could see the
cracks in his empire, the political
stresses and long-festering wounds that
threatened to tear his rule apart.
Ultimately he
knew
—whether through
prescience or Mentat analysis—that the
problems were insurmountable.
With his beloved Chani dead in childbirth
and his newborn twins helpless,
Muad‟Dib turned his back on humanity
and his children and walked into the
desert, leaving the empire to his
sixteen-year-old sister, Alia. Thus, he
abandoned everything he had worked
to create.
Even the most careful historian can
never know the reason for this.
