Frank Herbert

Franklin Patrick Herbert Jr., a celebrated American science fiction writer, made his entrance into the world on October 8, 1920, and went on to leave a lasting and profound impact on the literary landscape, continuing to weave his unique brand of storytelling until his passing on February 11, 1986. He is undoubtedly most closely linked with his pioneering 1965 novel, Dune, a work that not only revolutionized the science fiction genre but also spawned a successful series of five sequels, cementing his status as a masterful storyteller.
