The desert planet Arrakis has been destroyed, but the Bene Gesserit, inheritors of its mystical powers, have colonized a lush green world. Now, they wield ancient abilities to transform this new planet into a harsh desert, mile by scorched mile. But their terraforming faces threats from those who seek to stop them - including a growing resistance movement and the lingering powers of the old order. In the balance hangs the fate of this world, and the future of the Bene Gesserit's dominance.
