Dune: The Machine Crusade

Book Two of the Legends of Dune Trilogy

De: Brian Herbert, Kevin J. Anderson

Narrado por: Scott Brick

The breathtaking vision and incomparable storytelling of Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson's Dune: The Butlerian Jihad, a prequel to Frank Herbert's classic Dune, propelled it to the ranks of speculative fiction's classics in its own right. Now, with all the color, scope, and fascination of the prior novel, comes Dune: The Machine Crusade.

More than two decades have passed since the events chronicled in The Butlerian Jihad. The crusade against thinking robots has ground on for years, but the forces led by Serena Butler and Irbis Ginjo have made only slight gains; the human worlds grow weary of war, of the bloody, inconclusive swing from victory to defeat.

The fearsome cymeks, led by Agamemnon, hatch new plots to regain their lost power from Omnius--as their numbers dwindle and time begins to run out. The fighters of Ginaz, led by Jool Noret, forge themselves into an elite warrior class, a weapon against the machine-dominated worlds. Aurelius Venport and Norma Cenva are on the verge of the most important discovery in human history-a way to "fold" space and travel instantaneously to any place in the galaxy.

And on the faraway, nearly worthless planet of Arrakis, Selim Wormrider and his band of outlaws take the first steps to making themselves the feared fighters who will change the course of history: the Fremen.

Here is the unrivaled imaginative power that has put Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson on bestseller lists everywhere and earned them the high regard of readers around the globe. The fantastic saga of Dune continues in Dune: The Machine Crusade.

Upon listening

The only thing I can add to this wonderful series of stories is that I want the next one to arrive soon. This was full of so much rich detail and plot twists that I was held in its grasp as the much as any of the synchronized worlds of Omnius.

The Machine Crusade

Spanning multiple years, The Machine Crusade brings the Butlarian Jihad to its violent crescendo. I can’t wait to hear what happens next.
Brian and Kevin you guys are awesome. Keep up the wonderful work.
Scott you continue to be the voice of the Dune expanded universe.
10/10

Great read for me!

This guy can write! This is a story that's based on things that could really come to pass in the future! It's real, yet unreal! Plenty of action and lots of room for thought! Gee, what if? The story is filled with believable people with real lives in a world that come be in our future! Get this one for sure if you like si-fi stories!

Amazing Narration!!!

Scott Brick is the best! The story is great, but he BRINGS IT TO LIFE!

Great second book

This second book is amazing and has lots of information that is needed to help understand the time before Dune and helps me to understand the characters, conflicts and places. A history I would say. This book has a lot of excitement and makes me want to see where the next book takes this story.
