Dune: House Atreides Vol. 1 by Brian Herbert, Kevin J. Anderson
4.0
‘Dune: House Atreides, Volume One’ by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson with art by Dev Pramanik is a graphic novel adaptation of the novel.
This is a prequel to the original Dune novel by Frank Herbert. Along the way, we meet familiar characters as they are younger, or, in some cases, still alive. A young Duncan Idaho seeks escape from tormenting captors. Pardo Kynes, a planetologist, wants to unlock the secrets of Arrakis. Leto Atreides begins a journey with a defined ending.
I have not read the Brian Herbert novels, but after reading this, I can see their appeal. The story moves around between planets but remains interesting. The art works really well here.
