Dune's Secret Gods

In this video I will go through the parallels between the story of Paul Atreides in Dune and Horus the Avenger in Egyptian mythology. Frank Herbert not only referred to Egyptian mythology in his work, it's the structural basis for his story. If you'd like to see more analysis of Frank Herbert's Dune, I have a video on my Patreon about his use of Greek mythology - Dune: Beware Greeks Bearing Myths. If you like my work, please consider joining my Patreon, where I examine fantasy books and authors in a more casual setting for my "Mythchief Managed" series as well as chapter readings and other content.   / theherowithathousandvoices   Connect with me on Instagram where I will announce future videos and other projects both here and on Patreon!   / theherowithathousandvoices
