Dune: Part Two is crazy popular at the moment and has rightly reinvigorated interest in reading the books the new films are based around. In case you weren't aware, Parts One and Two are based solely around the first Dune book while the follow-up, Dune: Messiah, is the next part of the saga set to be adapted by Denis Villeneuve. If you are interested in reading Dune for the first time, here are the best deals going right now at Amazon. Dune 1-3 (Dune, Dune: Messiah, and Children of Dune) are currently down to just $16.16 for a limited time.

It's a great price, and a decent reduction compared to the $30.99 MSRP, or even buying each of the novels separately. Plus, this is a nice starting point for new readers, with three books to crack on with at a reasonable price, and hopefully not overwhelming folk too much when diving into this enthralling universe.

If you want to take a step up, all six books in Herbert's original saga are also on sale, with the special edition box set collection down to just $64.80 at Amazon as well. This is a unique set for those who can't be without the whole series, and want every book to look consistently special on their bookshelves. It's a good price for a special edition collection, but should still be regarded as a premium listing when compared to buying the first set mentioned, or each book individually (which would come to $57.12 at the time of writing).

It can be a tiny bit tricky to get reading Dune right since there are technically 23 books in the series (with six of them written by Herbert). All of the books are canon and fit somewhere in the Dune timeline, but many of them have been written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. For now, starting with just the original saga by Frank Herbert is probably your best bet.

If you're in for more physical media right now, Dune Part Two Limited Edition Steelbook is up for preorder in 4K UHD at Amazon, and Oppenheimer is down to $19.99 in 4K UHD as well. Otherwise, for more great offers right now, consider following @IGNDeals on Twitter/X or Instagram, or checking out our best audiobook roundup, and the best fantasy books to consider reading this year as well.
