Dune HB / Herbert Frank (Herbert Frank), 2007

The Duke of Atreides has been manoeuvred by his archenemy, Baron Harkonnen, into administering the desert planet of Dune. Although it is almost completely without water, Dune is a planet of fabulous wealth, for it is the only source of a drug prized throughout the Galactic Empire. The Duke and his son, Paul, are expecting treachery, and it duly comes but from a shockingly unexpected place. Then Paul succeeds his father, and he becomes a catalyst for the native people of Dune, whose knowledge of the ecology of the planet gives them vast power. They have been waiting for a leader like Paul Atreides, a leader who can harness that force . . . DUNE: one of the most brilliant science fiction novels ever written, as engrossing and heartrending today as it was when it was first published half a century ago. NOTE : This edition doesnt come with colour plates.
