Dune Messiah is the second chapter of the Dune novel series. It is a fiction novel which is written by Frank Herbert. He was an American novelist of science fiction stories. Dune is his most popular novel which was originally published for the first time in 1965. It was followed by its five sequels where Dune Messiah is one of them. Children of Dune is another one of those that you must try out as well.
The audio narration of Dune Messiah is done by Scott Brick, Euan Morton, Simon Vance, and Katherine Kellgren. This was a wonderful performance by renowned and experienced narrators, who made this novel such a pleasant experience in audio.
This multimillion-selling, epic science fiction series continues here with the same enthusiasm where it ended in the last chapter. This second installment of the Dune series will find the listeners exploring several of the new developments that were on the Arrakis planet. All of that will be offered through its intense, complex social order along with the threatening, strange environment as well.
This is the book that picks up the great story of Muad’Dib. He was an heir of unbelievable power. He was the one who brought to light the ambition of unprecedented scale. It was the centuries-old scheme for creating a super-being who reigned not within the heavens but also among the men.
But there is a big question that comes to mind: Do all the different paths of glory ahead lead to the grave?
The book has a great story but it couldn’t match such high standards that were set by Dune, the first chapter of the series. Nonetheless, if the Dune Messiah book is evaluated on its own with no comparison then you will like it a lot.
