Dune
Frank Herbert, 1965
A desert planet, a spice that lets navigators fold space, and a boy being trained into a messiah he never asked to be.
Frank Herbert
Dune began as a magazine assignment on Oregon's moving sand dunes, and was first published by Chilton, a house better known for auto-repair manuals.
Feels like awe, power and freedom.
What to say to yourself when fear arrives and will not leave.
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain. Books by Frank Herbert
