His focus is unwavering, and his pace never falters as he maintains his enthusiasm for the story and its characters." —AudioFile magazine The exciting sequel to the 'New York Times' bestseller, 'Dune: The Butlerian Jihad' The incomparable vision and breathtaking detail of Dune: The Butlerian Jihad made it one of speculative fiction’s classic novels. Now, with all the vivid characters and complex plot twists beloved by legions of readers comes Dune: the Machine Crusade. The struggle against thinking robots has ground on for years, the forces led by Serena Butler have made only slight gains, and the human worlds grow weary of war. The fearsome Cymeks hatch new plots to regain their lost power from Omnius. The warriors of Ginaz forge themselves into an elite warrior class. Aurelius Venport and Norma Cenva are on the verge of the most important discovery in human history—a way to “fold” space and travel instantaneously to any place in the galaxy. And on the remote, nearly worthless planet of Arrakis, Selim Wormrider and his band of outlaws take the first steps toward making themselves the feared fighters who will change the course of history: the Fremen.
