Dune: House Atreides is the first novel in a trilogy by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. This trilogy sets the stage for Dune, telling the backstory of many of the major characters. In House Atreides we meet a young Leto, along with his battling parents, Duke Paulus and the Duchess Helena, who had a political marriage. She came from House Richese, allied with the Harkonnen. Leto goes to the high tech world of Ix for a year to be fostered by House Vernius. The son of that house, Prince Rhombur becomes Leto's closest friend, and the beautiful daughter of the House, Kailea will become his first great love and concubine.
