No matter how many times I heard it,the story of the life of Paul Atreides is still fascinating.

Not going to lie, when I first saw the Sci-Fi channel’s mini-series, and then read the book as a teen, I completely missed the fact Paul was seeing the future. I was just, “oooo, space ships, knife fighting, deserts, politics, and sand worms.”

This was truly great storytelling.  It broke the mold on the "hero's journey" by showing you need to be careful what you wish for.  Absolute power corrupts absolutely.  Paul knew what his actions would bring, but was powerless to stop it.

Paul was legit playing 5d chess towards the end of his life, out maneuvering all of his enemies so easily.

I love the Duneverse. It has a real nice blending of a ton of cultures with the slight touch of magic. It's almost like the opposite of Warhammer 40k... I mean, 40k is more space travel, lots of magic, and plenty of grim darkness, but they share a few similarities.

The legend stated that the Atreides family came from a noble family that originated in Greece on Earth, and that they rose to prominence during the Butlerian Jihad. House Atreides specifically claimed descent from King Agamemnon, a son of Atreus, in Greek mythology.

When I began reading Dune I just knew that Paul was the foundation for Anakin and Luke Skywalker.

Paul is such a powerful figure. He desperately wanted to stop the fighting in “his name,”and yet each step he took brought him closer to it. Eventually bringing about a tyrant. Fulfilling his visions. Makes you wonder what came first? The chicken or the egg?

You want to understand Dune?  Read the books.  No movie, tv show, or video will help you experience this amazing story like the books will.
