Summary

Dune Messiah is the sequel to Frank Herbert's renowned saga Dune, which continues the story of Paul Atreides, who has become the emperor of the universe and the messiah of the Arrakis people. Twelve years have passed since Paul seized power. During this time, the cult of Muad'Dib has only grown stronger, but the cost of power proves to be too high. Rebellions are brewing within the empire, and Paul himself faces betrayals and intrigues. He tries to find a way out of the dead ends of the future he himself predicted, while simultaneously trying to maintain his power and protect his family. The story deeply explores themes of predestination, free will, and the cost of leadership, raising questions about the morality and ethics of power.
