It won the 1966 Hugo and Nebula Award. It has been described as the science fiction equivalent to Tolkien's 'The Lord of the Rings' in fantasy in the book's scope, depth, complexity and quality of writing. It has had a colossal influence on the sci-fi genre in literature and film. For exmaple, without 'Dune' 'Star Wars' would not have been made. 'Dune' has been adaped into film by David Lynch in 1984; and as a TV-mini series in 2000. An earlier attempt to film the source material by Alejandro Jodorowsky in the 1970s failed due to lack of finances. A star cast (Salvador Dali; Orson Welles) and the most creative team of that time (film score by Pink Floyd; conceptual art by H.R Giger; Jean Giraud and Chris Foss) had been working on the project and it became 'the most influential film that was never made'. A new film adaptation by Canadian director Dennis Villeneuve who has made some outstanding science fiction fims in the past ('Arrival' and 'Blade Runner 2049') was released in tow parts in the early 2020s to critical acclaim and commercial success. A third film is already in planning which will tackle the Dune Messiah story line. First and Fine. Signed by Illustrator(s).
