The Machine Crusade - Kevin James Anderson, Brian Herbert
The breathtaking vision and incomparable storytelling of Brian Herbert and Kevin Anderson's Dune: The Butlerian Jihad, a prequel to Frank Herbert's classic Dune, propelled it to the ranks of speculative fiction's classics in its own right. Now, with all the color, scope, and fascination of the prior novel, comes Dune: The Machine Crusade.More than two decades have passed since the events chronicled in The Butlerian Jihad. The crusade against thinking robots has ground on for years, but the forces led by Serena Butler and Irbis Ginjo have made only slight gains; the human worlds grow weary of war, of the bloody, inconclusive swing from victory to defeat.The fearsome cymeks, led by Agamemnon, hatch new plots to regain their lost power from Omnius--as their numbers dwindle and time begins to run out. The fighters of Ginaz, led by Jool Noret, forge themselves into an elite warrior class, a weapon against the machine-dominated worlds. Aurelius Venport and Norma Cenva are on the verge of the most important discovery in human history-a way to "fold" space and travel instantaneously to any place in the galaxy.And on the faraway, nearly worthless planet of Arrakis, Selim Wormrider and his band of outlaws take the first ...

Hnutí Manforda Toronda, jež získalo vliv po porážce myslících strojů, putuje po planetách a fanaticky ničí všechny stopy po technologiích. Gilbertus Albans, svěřenec nenáviděného robota Erasma, založil na planetě Lampadas mentatskou školu, v níž své svěřence učí být „lidskými počítači“, provádět matematické výpočty vyššího řádu a nacházet logické zákonitosti.

Historie Duny – Služebnický džihád - Brian Herbert, Kevin J. Anderson - audiokniha
Audiokniha: V šerém dávnověku byli Atreidové a Harkonnenové spojenci. Tehdy se začala psát historie Duny… Zkostnatělé Staré impérium kdysi dokázala svrhnout pouhá dvacítka odhodlaných spiklenců jištěných robotickými pomocníky. Nadvláda Titánů, jak se vzbouřenci označovali, však netrvala dlouho. Přestože se zbavili smrtelných schránek a stali se kymeky – věčnými mozky ovládajícími mechanická těla –, nedokázali vzdorovat rostoucí moci myslících strojů. Počítačová všemysl, jež si začala říkat Omnius, si podmanila většinu známého vesmíru a učinila z kymeků své nejnebezpečnější bojovníky. Tak je tomu už po tisíc let, a přesto hrstka lidských planet – Liga vznešených – nadále vzdoruje drtivé přesile Synchronizovaných světů ovládaných roboty. Do nelítostné války významně zasáhnou i dva výjimeční mladíci: Xavier Harkonnen a Vorian Atreides, jejichž rozdílné osudy spojí láska k téže ženě. K ženě, jejíž odvaha rozpoutala povstání lidských otroků proti Omniovi, vzpoura nazvaná Služebnický džihád… Příběh pouštní planety Arrakis předčasnou smrtí autora neskončil. Neutuchající zájem čtenářů přiměl jeho syna Briana, aby se spojil s Kevinem J. Andersonem a otcův fascinující svět opět oživil.
