We’ve found an excellent deal for anyone looking to dive into the sands of Arrakis ahead of the theatrical debut of Dune: Part Two on Mar. 1. Right now, Amazon is offering discounts on virtually every book in the Dune franchise, including box sets, as well as the excellent, award-winning graphic novel adaptation. As an added bonus, if you purchase three participating books from this sale, Amazon will knock 50% off the cheapest eligible item in your cart (this promotion also works on Blu-rays and video games!). Below, you’ll find just a handful of selections from this Shai’hulud-sized sale.
The first six books in Frank Herbert’s Dune saga are collected in this paperback box set that’s currently available at Amazon for $59.99 (was $108). This set combines Dune, Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse: Dune into a single box set with minimalist cover art.
A more striking, hardcover collection of the first three books in the Dune saga is also available on Amazon for $83 (was $149.99). In addition to some amazing cover art, each book features an illustrated poster inside its dust jacket.
The Dune saga is pretty awesome, but parsing its dense sci-fi setting from the text can be a bit intimidating to newcomers. If you’re looking for a way to ease yourself into Frank Herbert’s universe, we highly recommend checking out the Dune: Graphic Novel collection, which spreads the first book in the Dune franchise over a trilogy of illustrated volumes. The Deluxe hardcover version of the first book in the trilogy is currently on sale at Amazon for $27.99 (was $50). The standard version of the second book is available for $16.99 (was $24.99). Unfortunately, the third volume isn’t due to launch until Jul. 16, and is currently available for pre-order for $25.99.
