Frank Herbert’s magnificent Dune saga sprawls across countless planets and tens of millennia. Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson have written 13 international best-selling novels set in this epic universe. But the wealth of material leaves many side tales or interesting ideas that can be told - hors d’oeuvres to accompany the exotic main course.

Sometimes, a short story is exactly what’s needed.

Tales of Dune collects eight of Herbert and Anderson’s Dune short stories, ranging from the period of the Butlerian Jihad to the time of young Paul Atreides to a story set during the events of the novel Dune to the very end of Frank Herbert’s future history.

These are the missing pieces in the epic of Dune.

Featured Article: Dune (2021)—Book vs. Movie


The very first book to win the Nebula Award, Frank Herbert's Dune has long been a fixture of the sci-fi world. It's no surprise, then, that yet another filmmaker has taken a stab at bringing this classic to the screen. The latest effort, by Arrival and Blade Runner 2049 director Denis Villeneuve, captures the first half of the epic novel. The reviews have been generally positive, with critics and audiences blown away by the scale and sheer ambition of the adaptation. Overall, Villeneuve's 2021 adaptation of Herbert's sci-fi classic is quite faithful. But in what small ways does the film differ from the book?

I love Dune the book by Frank and the movie (who doesn’t enjoy Sting) however it’s important to know that what has happened in the prequel is absolute in perfection. I simply believe that the thought of what was possible when Frank wrote his book was simply not enough. His son has done a near perfect job of bringing the realm of possibilities in SI-FI into a story that is and always will be a glimpse into the unknown universe.

The stories must flow.

I wish each of these stories could have been longer because they all left me wanting more. It was a treat to return to the story world of Dune.

Every story left me wanting more.

The scenes and characters Brian Herbert creates does not have the depth of the ones his Dad created. Yes these are short stories which arguably limits that but these don't come alive and pull you in like his Dads did. With that said the storyline is 'cleaner' and easier to follow and that may appeal more to some. I don't feel these stories add much to the universe but as a Dune fan they were nice dips back into the universe sooo not a wasted credit.
