Due to the similarities between some of Herbert's terms and ideas and actual words and concepts in the Arabic language, as well as the series' " Islamic undertones" and themes, a Middle-Eastern influence on Herbert's works has been noted repeatedly. [28] [29] In his descriptions of the Fremen culture and language, Herbert uses both authentic Arabic words and Arabic-sounding words. [30] [31] For example, one of the names for the sandworm, Shai-hulud, is derived from Arabic: شيء خلود, romanized: šayʾ ḫulūd, lit.'immortal thing' or Arabic: شيخ خلود, romanized: šayḫ ḫulūd, lit.'old man of eternity'. [32] [31] The title of the Fremen housekeeper, the Shadout Mapes, is borrowed from the Arabic: شادوف‎, romanized: šādūf, the Egyptian term for a device used to raise water. [31] In particular, words related to the messianic religion of the Fremen, first implanted by the Bene Gesserit, are taken from Arabic, including Muad'Dib (from Arabic: مؤدب, romanized: muʾaddib, lit.'educator'), Usul (from Arabic: أصول, romanized: ʾuṣūl, lit.'fundamental principles'), Shari-a (from Arabic: شريعة, romanized: šarīʿa, lit.' sharia; path'), Shaitan (from Arabic: شيطان, romanized: šayṭān, lit.' Shaitan; devil; fiend', and jinn (from Arabic: جن, romanized: ǧinn, lit.' jinn; spirit; demon; mythical being'). [28] It is likely Herbert relied on second-hand resources such as phrasebooks and desert adventure stories to find these Arabic words and phrases for the Fremen. [31] They are meaningful and carefully chosen, and help create an "imagined desert culture that resonates with exotic sounds, enigmas, and pseudo-Islamic references" and has a distinctly Bedouin aesthetic. [31] A sequel, Dune: Part Two, was scheduled for release on November 3, 2023, [144] but will now instead be released on March 15th 2024 amid the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. [145] Audiobooks [ edit ] As a foreigner who adopts the ways of a desert-dwelling people and then leads them in a military capacity, Paul Atreides bears many similarities to the historical T. E. Lawrence. [33] His 1962 biopic Lawrence of Arabia has also been identified as a potential influence. [34] The Sabres of Paradise (1960) has also been identified as a potential influence upon Dune, with its depiction of Imam Shamil and the Islamic culture of the Caucasus inspiring some of the themes, characters, events and terminology of Dune.

Thanks to Lawrence's clever merchant tactics and Holo's special set of animal-based skills, the effective pair's partnership has earned a notorious reputation for forging a productive path of positivity as they venture across the countryside. The light novel series that follows the intriguing journey consists of over 20 volumes and a 2007 manga adaptation drawn by Keito Koume. There have also been two anime adaptations so far — "Spice and Wolf" in 2008 and "Spice and Wolf II: The Wolf and the Amber Melanchol" in 2009 .

There have been a number of games based on the book, starting with the strategy– adventure game Dune (1992). The most important game adaptation is Dune II (1992), which established the conventions of modern real-time strategy games and is considered to be among the most influential video games of all time. [176] In 1977, David Matthews became one of the first artists to dedicate an entire composition to Dune, publishing an album of the same name on CTI Records. [155] A lot of people refer to Dune as science fiction. I never do. I consider it an epic adventure in the classic storytelling tradition, a story of myth and legend not unlike the Morte d'Arthur or any messiah story. It just happens to be set in the future ... The story is actually more relevant today than when Herbert wrote it. In the 1960s, there were just these two colossal superpowers duking it out. Today we're living in a more feudal, corporatized world more akin to Herbert's universe of separate families, power centers and business interests, all interrelated and kept together by the one commodity necessary to all.

Clarke described Dune as "unique" and wrote, "I know nothing comparable to it except The Lord of the Rings." [81] Robert A. Heinlein described the novel as "powerful, convincing, and most ingenious." [81] [82] It was described as "one of the monuments of modern science fiction" by the Chicago Tribune, [81] and P. Schuyler Miller called Dune "one of the landmarks of modern science fiction ... an amazing feat of creation." [82] The Washington Post described it as "a portrayal of an alien society more complete and deeply detailed than any other author in the field has managed ... a story absorbing equally for its action and philosophical vistas ... An astonishing science fiction phenomenon." [81] [82] Algis Budrys praised Dune for the vividness of its imagined setting, saying "The time lives. It breathes, it speaks, and Herbert has smelt it in his nostrils". He found that the novel, however, "turns flat and tails off at the end. ... [T]ruly effective villains simply simper and melt; fierce men and cunning statesmen and seeresses all bend before this new Messiah". Budrys faulted in particular Herbert's decision to kill Paul's infant son offstage, with no apparent emotional impact, saying "you cannot be so busy saving a world that you cannot hear an infant shriek". [83] After criticizing unrealistic science fiction, Carl Sagan in 1978 listed Dune as among stories "that are so tautly constructed, so rich in the accommodating details of an unfamiliar society that they sweep me along before I have even a chance to be critical".
