MENTATS OF DUNE by Kevin J. Anderson & Brian Herbert - DOUBLE SIGNED FIRST EDITION BOOK
See all titles by Kevin J. Anderson and Brian Herbert.
In Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson's Mentats of Dune, the thinking machines have been defeated but the struggle for humanity’s future continues.
Gilbertus Albans has founded the
Mentat School, a place where humans can learn the efficient techniques
of thinking machines. But Gilbertus walks an uneasy line between his own
convictions and compromises in order to survive the Butlerian fanatics,
led by the madman Manford Torondo and his Swordmaster Anari Idaho.
Mother Superior Raquella attempts to rebuild her Sisterhood School on
Wallach IX, with her most talented and ambitious student, Valya
Harkonnen, who also has another goal—to exact revenge on Vorian
Atreides, the legendary hero of the Jihad, whom she blames for her
family’s downfall.
Meanwhile, Josef Venport conducts
his own war against the Butlerians. VenHold Spacing Fleet controls
nearly all commerce thanks to the superior mutated Navigators that
Venport has created, and he places a ruthless embargo on any planet that
accepts Manford Torondo’s anti-technology pledge, hoping to starve them
into submission. But fanatics rarely surrender easily . . .
The Mentats, the Navigators, and
the Sisterhood all strive to improve the human race, but each group
knows that as Butlerian fanaticism grows stronger, the battle will be to
choose the path of humanity’s future—whether to embrace civilization,
or to plunge into an endless dark age.
