Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He is Paul Atreides. The son of Duke Leto and Lady Jessica, the heir of Caladan. He will become the fabled Muad’Dib. Before he set foot on the sands of Arrakis, Paul was forged into the young man who would become a great leader, a hero . . . even a tyrant. Just as he turns fifteen years old, Paul is faced with turbulent crises on Caladan – political turmoil, as well as the unravelling of his family. His mother, Lady Jessica, has been blackmailed and forced by the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood to leave Caladan and become the new concubine of another lord, in an effort to prove her loyalty . . . and break her heart. Duke Leto Atreides, driven to extremes to prove his service to Emperor Shaddam, and to preserve and strengthen his Great House at all costs, has undertaken a dangerous mission that goes against the grain of his honour – to pretend to join the violent rebel cause of the bloodthirsty Jaxson Aru, even to befriend the terrorist leader. The loyal Gurney Halleck has been dispatched on a secret, vitally important mission to inform the Emperor of Leto’s true cause, that his honour has never wavered . . . but Gurney has been intercepted and captured by the terrible Harkonnens. Young Paul is left to serve as the steward to Caladan, his beloved and beautiful world . . .and in preparation for that, the young man has been trained in mental acuity by the warrior Mentat Thufir Hawat, pushed to the extremes of his abilities by the faithful Swordmaster Duncan Idaho, and taught in natural science by the Suk Doctor Wellington Yueh, who harbours his own dark secret. Paul must meet every challenge, grow and become strong enough to protect a world . . . but the heir of Caladan does not know that these trials will shape him into the man who will conquer an entire Imperium.

Download or read book The Forgotten Heroes written by Brian Herbert and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2005-05 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States Merchant Marine has a tradition of being in the forefront of every American military action and has served with distinction in every conflict. New York Times bestselling author Brian Herbert chronicles the amazing exploits of these gallant seamen, assembling a fascinating array of data from historical documents, government records, diaries, and interviews with surviving veterans. This brilliant history details the heroism, self-sacrifice and grim determination that have always been the hallmark of the United States Merchant Marine. Herbert also reveals one of the great injustices of American history. The civilian fighters of the Merchant Marine performed feats of extraordinary bravery during World War II; they were the lifeline of the entire Allied war effort, delivering troops, materiel, food, fuel, and every essential needed for victory over the Axis. In doing so, the Merchant Marine suffered losses so high that the casualty rates were kept secret. At war's end, the men and women of every other service branch were honored by parades and given medical and educational benefits--but the members of the Merchant Marine, who were so vital to our victory, have received neither the benefits nor the recognition they deserved. Herbert is part of a growing movement across the United States to right the wrong. The Forgotten Heroes is a history of these unsung heroes and a plea for justice.
