God Emperor of Dune (Dune #4) by Frank Herbert

Product Details

About the Book

Millennia have passed on Arrakis, and the once-desert planet is now green with life. Leto Atreides, son of the world's savior Emperor Paul Muad'Dib, is still alive but far from human — having sacrificed his own humanity by merging with a sandworm, granting him near immortality as God Emperor of Dune for the past thirty-five hundred years. His rule, however, is not a benevolent one.

Endowed with prescience and ancestral memories, Leto follows what he calls "The Golden Path," a course he believes will save humanity from extinction but that necessitates his tyrannical rule over the known universe. Enforcing order through the all-female Fish Speakers, his loyal army, Leto has subdued the populace into a state of fearful reverence — a stagnant peace that leaves little room for rebellion, even as dissent begins to bubble beneath the surface. As conspiracies stir against his rule and his own carefully laid plans near their culmination, Leto must confront the ultimate cost of the path he chose — and what remains of the man beneath the monster.
