how old is paul atreides

In the novel 'Dune', Paul Atreides is depicted as a 15-year-old at the start of the book. The tale spans over a few years, so his age changes as the story progresses.

I can remember very clearly that I first opened the whole 'Dune' series and was immediately drawn to its young protagonist Paul Atreides, who was no older than 15 when it all started.

As this epic plot moves on through treacheries, wars and prophecies, perhaps we can see Paul as he grows up really. Paul is a character with a fascinating and yet complicated destiny grander than his age.

As per the story's timeline, he ages from teenager to man, showing through his very expressions how the burdens of his obligation take their toll and dashing all hopes he manages not to die early in life at hardly 25 years for such people surrounded on all sides by cruelty and danger!

Nice choice, “Dune!” In the early part of Frank Herbert’s "Dune," Paul Atreides was about 15 years old. But subsequently neither Paul Atreides nor the saga halted. Instead, along comes the passage of time. This means that in later volumes his age shifts upward once again, reflecting both growth and the trials through which he passes.
