Frank Herbert’s Dune Complete Collection is a comprehensive collection of Frank Herbert’s ‘Dune Chronicles’ that begins with the landmark science fiction epic DUNE, a stunningly realised four-and-a-half hour miniseries produced by the Sci-Fi Channel, and continues with the spectacular follow up CHILDREN OF DUNE, which combines the second and third books from the series.
Featuring a stellar cast worthy of such an epic saga, these award-winning productions are landmark in their vision and scope and remain two of the highest rating sci-fi programs in history. Now including two bonus discs of extensive behind-the-scenes content and interviews with the cast and crew, Frank Herbert’s Dune Complete Collection is the definitive tome of the Atreides family legacy and of the spice-world Arrakis.
