Children of Dune

Book • 1976
Set nine years after the events of 'Dune Messiah,' 'Children of Dune' follows the story of Leto II and Ghanima, the pre-born twin children of Paul Atreides.

The novel explores the delicate balance on Arrakis as the planet undergoes ecological transformation, threatening the sandworms and the spice production.

Alia, Paul's sister and regent, struggles with her own prescience and the influence of her ancestors, while Leto and Ghanima must navigate their unique genetic memories and the political intrigues of the empire.

Leto's vision of 'The Golden Path' drives the plot, leading to a transformative and sacrifices-filled conclusion that shapes the future of humanity.
