Book Four in the Magnificent Dune Chronicles the Bestselling Science Fiction Adventure of All Time

Millennia have passed on Arrakis, and the once-desert planet is green with life. Leto Atreides, the son of the world s savior, the Emperor Paul Muad Dib, is still alive but far from human. To preserve humanity s future, he sacrificed his own by merging with a sandworm, granting him near immortality as God Emperor of Dune for the past thirty-five hundred years.

Leto s rule is not a benevolent one. His transformation has made not only his appearance but his morality inhuman. A rebellion, led by Siona, a member of the Atreides family, has risen to oppose the despot s rule. But Siona is unaware that Leto s vision of a Golden Path for humanity requires her to fulfill a destiny she never wanted or could possibly conceive. . . .

Portrait

Frank Herbert

Frank Herbert is the bestselling author of the Dune saga. He was born in Tacoma, Washington, and educated at the University of Washington, Seattle. He worked a wide variety of jobs including TV cameraman, radio commentator, oyster diver, jungle survival instructor, lay analyst, creative writing teacher, reporter and editor of several West Coast newspapers before becoming a full-time writer.

In 1952, Herbert began publishing science fiction with Looking for Something? in Startling Stories. But his emergence as a writer of major stature did not occur until 1965, with the publication of Dune. Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse: Dune followed, completing the saga that the Chicago Tribune would call one of the monuments of modern science fiction. Herbert is also the author of some twenty other books, including The White Plague, The Dosadi Experiment, and Destination: Void. He died in 1986.

Pressestimmen

Praise for God Emperor of Dune

Rich fare. . . Heady stuff. Los Angeles Times

A fourth visit to distant Arrakis that is every bit as fascinating as the other three every bit as timely. Time

Praise for Dune

I know nothing comparable to it except Lord of the Rings. Arthur C. Clarke

A portrayal of an alien society more complete and deeply detailed than any other author in the field has managed. . . a story absorbing equally for its action and philosophical vistas. The Washington Post Book World

One of the monuments of modern science fiction. Chicago Tribune

Powerful, convincing, and most ingenious. Robert A. Heinlein

Herbert s creation of this universe, with its intricate development and analysis of ecology, religion, politics and philosophy, remains one of the supreme and seminal achievements in science fiction. Louisville Times
