Authors Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson bring us back to the Dune universe with this anthology and expansion on their original Tales of Dune ebook of which has some stories that this one dose not. But about this one it is set up in period order from the legends era were we meet Xavier Harkonnen's father and brother as they are ambushed by the Cymeks above the future home of the Atreides to the period after the scattering. A time were scavengers come back to a glassed Dune in order to look for treasures of the God Emperor. The last story sets up the last two books in the Dune saga Hunters and Sandworms of Dune. This is a great book and I highly recommend ti to all Dune fans and pick up the ebook version of the original Tales as well.
