Frank Herbert’s Dune is undoubtedly one of the most important works of science fiction ever written. Dune was so influential that not only did its film adaptations attract some of the most talented filmmakers in history, but it also changed sci-fi as a genre forever. Even today, Dune’s influence can be felt in sci-fi stories across all mediums.It’s safe to say that Dune all but created some of the most well-known sci-fi clichés and conventions. If it didn’t create the trope in question, Dune at least popularized it to such an extent that the novel has since been credited as its progenitor. Without Dune, sci-fi wouldn’t be what it is today, and it would be infinitely less interesting and exciting.Arrakis’ sandworms were so synonymous to Dune that they became the franchise’s mascot. The one thing that the sandworms’ many imitators often left out was their godlike reverence in Arrakis. Dune’s sandworms weren’t just giant wild animals; the Fremen saw them as ancient living gods that they called “Shai-Hulud.”
