Monumentaalinen scifisaaga saa jatkoa. Dyynin lapset oli 1970-luvun tieteiskirjallisuuden suurtapahtuma. Nyt ensi kertaa suomeksi ilmestyvä, kauan odotettu klassikkoteos on edelleen ajankohtainen, enteellinen ja genrensä huippua. Yhdeksän vuotta sitten keisari Paul Atreides katosi Arrakisin autiomaahan. Hän jätti jälkeensä vastasyntyneet lapsensa Leton ja Ghaniman. Kaksosilla on perintönään isänsä ennusnäyt ihmiskunnan kohtalosta. Maailmankaikkeutta hallitsee Atreidesin suvun nimissä kaksosten täti Alia, mutta hänen valtaansa uhkaavat niin poliittinen juonittelu kuin hänen oman perimänsä kahleet. Monikerroksinen Dyyni-sarja syventyy ympäristötuhoon, kulttuurien yhteentörmäyksiin, uskonnolliseen ääriajatteluun ja tyrannihallintoihin. Isojen muutosten keskellä häilyy kysymys siitä, kuinka suuri tai pieni voi yksi ihminen olla. Frank Herbert (1920–1986) oli tieteiskirjallisuuden suurimpia uranuurtajia. Hänen pääteoksenaan pidetään Dyyni-sarjaa, josta on aiemmin suomennettu Dyyni sekä Dyynin messias. Scifimonumentti Dyyni on myös nähty kahdesti valkokankaalla: ensin David Lynchin ja nyttemmin Denis Villeneuven sovituksena. Uusimman elokuvan jatko-osa saapuu elokuvateattereihin helmikuussa 2024. Myös Dyynin lapsista on tehty minisarja Frank Herbert's Children of Dune (2003).

Oma kolm ja pool tuhat aastat kestnud valitsemisega hoidis imperaator Leto II kogu inimkonda surve all, ikka selleks, et inimeste soov universumisse laiali valguda vaid suureneks. Leto surmale järgneski hajumiseks nimetatud protsess, mille käigus asustati loendamatu hulk planeete. Pooleteise tuhande aasta pärast peavad aga need, kes punuvad kunagises impeeriumi südames oma intriige, tõdema, et kaugete tähtede juurest naasnute võimed ja oskused ületavad nende omasid. Mõned naasnutest on tulnud palverännakule, mõned mahaunustatud prahti ära koristama. Paljud Leto ettekuulutused on täitunud, Arrakist katab jälle kõrb, milles elavad võimsad liivaussid. Ent kui kauget tulevikku suutis Leto ette näha? Ja kas ta nägi ka ette, et tuleb tüdruk, kelle sõna peale liivaussid peatuvad? Mastaapne romaan, mille keskmes on igihaljad valikud: kas pealt vaadata või sekkuda? Missugune oleks üllas eesmärk, mille nimel tegutseda?

Roman "Bog-Imperator Djuny" povestvuet o zhizni Leto II, syna Pola Atrejdesa. Masshtabnaja ekologicheskaja transformatsija podoshla k zaversheniju. Na Arrakise pojavilis lesa, ozera i reki. No net bolshe velikoj pustyni i net peschanykh chervej, proizvodivshikh spetsiju - samuju bolshuju dragotsennost planety...

Kunagine kõrbeplaneet Arrakis on peaaegu üleni haljas, jäänud on vaid üks kõrbelaik. Kõrbetes elanud hiiglaslikud liivaussid on kadunud ning nii ei teki enam juurde inimeste eluiga pikendavat ja kosmoselendudeks hädavajalikku vürtsi - melanzhi. Kõik need aastad on kogu teadaolevat universumi valitsenud Leto Atreides, kelle keha areneb vähehaaval ikka rohkem liivaussi sarnaseks. Poisikesena nägi Leto ette Kuldset rada, mis hoiaks ära inimkonna hukkumise. Nüüd on ta oma alamatele ühtaegu jumal ja hirmuvalitseja, kes jagab oma soosikutele melanzhi, rahulolematuid saadab aga karistama oma ainult naistest koosneva piiritult ustava sõjaväe. Väga vähesed aimavad, et vaid inimesena surres ja liivaussina taas sündides suudab Leto käivitada uue tsükli ja kindlustada inimkonna säilimise.

Frenk Gerbert (1920-1986) uspel napisat mnogo, no v istorii ostalsja prezhde vsego kak avtor epopei "Djuna" - vozmozhno, samoj proslavlennoj sagi v nauchnoj fantastike, sagi, perevedennoj na desjatki jazykov i zavoevavshej po vsemu miru milliony poklonnikov. Samyj avtoritetnyj zhurnal nauchnoj fantastiki "Lokus" priznal "Djunu", pervyj roman epopei o peschanoj planete, luchshim nauchno-fantasticheskim romanom vsekh vremen i narodov. V "Djune" Frenku Gerbertu udalos sovershit nevozmozhnoe - sozdat svoeobraznuju "khroniku dalekogo buduschego". I ne bylo za vsju istoriju mirovoj fantastiki kartiny grjaduschego bolee jarkoj, bolee zrimoj, bolee moschnoj i originalnoj. V sbornik vkljucheny pervye tri romana iz znamenitogo tsikla Frenka Gerberta: "Djuna", "Messija Djuny" i "Deti Djuny". Perevod Ju. Sokolova.
