“The mystery of life isn't a problem to solve, but a reality to experience": Frank Herbert's Classic Novel Dune; Signed by Him

First edition, third printing of the author's masterpiece. Octavo, original boards. Boldly signed by Frank Herbert on the title page. Fine in a very good price-clipped dust jacket. Jacket art by John Schoenherr. Uncommon signed.

Dune was awarded the first Nebula award for best science fiction novel, shared the Hugo award, and "became one of the most famous of all science fiction novels" (The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction). Set on the desert planet Arrakis, Dune is the story of the boy Paul Atreides, who would become the mysterious man known as Muad'Dib. He would avenge the traitorous plot against his noble family--and would bring to fruition humankind's most ancient and unattainable dream. A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism and politics and formed the basis of what is undoubtedly the grandest epic in science fiction.
