Anderson now tell the grand climax of the story left unfinished in CHAPTER HOUSE: DUNE, and continued in HUNTERS OF DUNE.\n\nFrom the Back Cover\n\nWhen Frank Herbert died in 1986, the epic he began with DUNE and continued to CHAPTERHOUSE: DUNE remained unfinished. Now the saga's grande finale has been completed as he intended.\nThe foe that humanity believed to be long defeated has reappeared from the edge of the universe - and mankind's last defenders fear that nothing can stop it now.\nSlaughtering whole planets with biological plagues, the terrible Enemy accidentally reawakened by the Honored Matres approaches ever closer to Chapterhouse, where Mother Commander Murbella and her combined force of Bene Gesserit and Honored Matres desperately gather their every defence to stop its advance. Meanwhile, Sheanna's no-ship flees from both Murbella and the Enemy, carrying the last surviving sandworms from Arrakis and the reborn heroes of past ages, including Paul Atreides himself.\nOne of them is the ultimate Kwisach Haderach - the messiah who will change the world in ways that no-one can predict. But far away on a horribly altered Caladan, the Enemy seeks to create a Kwisach Haderach of its own.\n\nAbout the Author\n\nBrian Herbert is a widely-published science fiction novelist. Kevin J.
