How do we approach the study of Muad'Dib's father? A man of surpassing warmth and suprising coldness was the Duke Leto Atreides. Yet, many facts open the way to this Duke: his abiding love for his Bene Gesserit Lady; the dreams he held for his son; the devotion with which men served him. You see him there - a man snared by Destiny, a lonely figure with his light dimmed behind the glory of his son. Still, one must ask:What is the son but an extension of the father?

Maud'Dib, Family Comentaries

To attempt an understanding of Muad'Dib without understanding his mortal enemies, the Harkonnens, is to attempt seeing Truth without knowing Falsehood. It is the attempt to see the light without knowing Darkness. It cannot be.

Thus spoke St Alia-Of-The-Knife. 'The referend Mother must combine the seductive wins of the courtesan with the untouchable majesty of a Virgin goddess, holding these attributes in tension so long as the powers of her youth endure. For when youth and beauty have gone, she will find that the place between, once occupied by tension, has become a wellspring of cunning and resourcefulness.

Maud'Dib, Family Commentaries

A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct. This every sister of the Bene Gesserit knows. To begin your study of the life of Muad'Dib, then, take care that you first place him in his time: born in the 57th year of the Padishah Emperor, Shaddam IV. And take the most special care that you take Muad'Dib in his place: the planet Arrakis. Do not be deceived by the fact that he was born on Caladan and love his first fifteen years there.Arrakis, the planet known as Dune, is forever his place.

(Part 1) With the Lady Jessica and Arrakis, the Bene Gesserit system of sowing implant-legends through the Missionaria Protectiva came to its full fruition. The wisdom of seeing the known universe with a prophecy pattern for the protection of B.G. personnel has long been appreciated, but never have we seen a condition-ut-extremis with more ideal mating of person and preparation.

(Part 2) The prophetic legends had taken on Arrakis even to the extent of adopted labels (including Reverend Mother, Canto and respondu, and most of the Shari-a panoply propheticus). And it is generally accepted now that the Lady Jessica's latent abilities were grossly underestimated.

(Part 2) There were Duncan Idaho, the sword Master of the Ginaz; Dr Wellington Yueh, a name black in teachers but bright in knowledge; the Lady Jessica, who guided her son in the Bene Gesserit Way, and - of course - the Duke Leto, whose qualities as a father have long been overlooked.

A Child's History of Muad'Dib

(Part 1) You have read that Muad'Dib had no playmates his age on Caladan. The dangers were too great. But Muad'Dib did have wonderful companion-teachers. There was Gurney Halleck, the troubadour-warrior. You will sing some of Gurney's songs as you read along in this book. There was Thufir Hawat, the old Mentat Master of Assasins, who struck fear into the heart of the Padishah Emperor.

When House Atreides is betrayed, the destruction of Paul’s family will set the boy on a journey toward a destiny greater than he could ever have imagined. And as he evolves into the mysterious man known as Muad’Dib, he will bring to fruition humankind’s most ancient and unattainable dream.  A stunning blend of adventure and mysticism, environmentalism and politics, Dune won the first Nebula Award, shared the Hugo Award, and formed the basis of what is undoubtedly the grandest epic in science fiction.
