Hunters of Dune Audiobook Streaming Online & Download Free
Hunters of Dune Audiobook is the first of two audiobooks written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson to conclude Frank Herbert’s original Dune Chronicles.
I had finished chapter house and I was hesitant about jumping into the next book because of Frank Herbert’s death, most of the online opinions and especially the reviews for this book and the next one are very negative. Although there were still mysteries I thought there was enough closure with chapterhouse.
Based directly on Frank Herbert’s final outline, which lay hidden in a safe-deposit box for a decade, these two volumes will finally answer the urgent questions Dune fans have been debating for two decades.
If you’re a big fan of Dune Chronicles, don’t hesitate to get it. Another fantastic entry in one of the greatest science fiction series of all time!
Highly recommended!
Plot Summary
At the end of Chapterhouse: Dune – Frank Herbert’s final novel – a ship carrying the ghola of Duncan Idaho, Sheeana (a young woman who can control sandworms), and a crew of various refugees escapes into the uncharted galaxy, fleeing from the monstrous Honored Matres, dark counterparts to the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood. The nearly invincible Honored Matres have swarmed into the known universe, driven from their home by a terrifying, mysterious Enemy.
As designed by the creative genius of Frank Herbert, the primary story of Hunters and Sandworms is the exotic odyssey of Duncan’s no-ship as it is forced to elude the diabolical traps set by the ferocious, unknown Enemy.
To strengthen their forces, the fugitives have used genetic technology from Scytale, the last Tleilaxu Master, to revive key figures from Dune’s past – including Paul Muad’Dib and his beloved Chani, Lady Jessica, Stilgar, Thufir Hawat, and even Dr. Wellington Yueh. Each of these characters will use their special talents to meet the challenges thrown at them.
Failure is unthinkable – not only is their survival at stake, but they hold the fate of the entire human race in their hands.

Reviews
This is my first experience with Brian and Kevin’s Dune stories and I was both happy with their knowledge and respect for the characters while also intrigued about where Sandworms of Dune Audiobook will go.
Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson have taken the whole thing to a new level, connecting everything so brilliantly I am almost getting angry at the amount of criticism they have received.
Hunters of Dune Audiobook mp3 is defined by two things. First by one of the most daring twists in the history of science fiction. Scytale’s plan. It has the potential to be the most utterly ridiculous concept I have ever read, but also the complete opposite. Time will tell.
And second, by a chain of important revelations at the end leading up to the answering of the ultimate question: Who is the Enemy?
Narration
The narration was wonderful. Scott Brick is a fantastic narrator. His performance gives flesh to the story almost as well as the imagination itself. He really did a great job.
Overall, it worked well and was an enjoyable listen, and it did not get in the way of the book and may have even helped.
