Book Four in the Magnificent Dune Chroniclesâthe 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 worldâs savior, the Emperor Paul MuadâDib, is still alive but far from human.
To preserve humanityâs 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.
Letoâs 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 despotâs rule.
But Siona is unaware that Letoâs vision of a Golden Path for humanity requires her to fulfill a destiny she never wantedâor could possibly conceive....
About the AuthorÂ
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 jobsâincluding TV cameraman, radio commentator, oyster diver, jungle survival instructor, lay analyst, creative writing teacher, reporter and editor of several West Coast newspapersâbefore becoming a full-time writer.
In 1952, Herbert began publishing science fiction with âLooking for Something?â 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 âone of the monuments of modern science fiction.â
Herbert is also the author of some twenty other books, including The White Plague, The Dosadi Experiment, and Destination: Void. He died in 1986.
