Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Frank Herbert was an American science fiction writer best known for Dune, one of the most influential novels in the history of the genre. Born in 1920, Herbert worked as a journalist, photographer, editor, and lecturer before becoming one of the defining speculative writers of the twentieth century. His fiction is known for its ecological imagination, political complexity, religious and cultural systems, psychological tension, and deep interest in how human beings respond to power, environment, and long-range consequence.Before Dune made his reputation worldwide, Herbert wrote short fiction that already showed his interest in perception, adaptation, alien intelligence, and the limits of human certainty. "Missing Link" reflects that early strength, using contact with the alien and the unknown as a way to test human assumptions. Herbert remains essential reading for fans of classic science fiction, ecological SF, planetary adventure, political speculation, and stories of civilization under pressure.
