Sinossi
Dopo millenni di dominio sull'universo, l'Imperatore-Dio Leto II, ibrido prodotto dalla fusione del suo corpo umano con diverse trote della sabbia, ha potuto assistere al profondo mutamento di Arrakis, ormai conosciuto solo come Rakis. Le antiche distese di sabbia sono soltanto un ricordo lontano, e il pianeta è molto diverso dall'arido Dune. La vegetazione è florida e l'acqua sgorga abbondante, e non c'è più traccia dei vermi della sabbia. Leto II ha dedicato ogni energia a incrementare i suoi enormi poteri, con l'unico risultato di diventare una creatura abietta e disumana, che getta un'ombra minacciosa sul Sentiero Dorato. Il comandante Duncan Idaho si trova a dover affrontare una questione morale incredibilmente ardua: qual è la scelta giusta, rimanere fedele agli Atreides, nel bene e nel male, o lottare contro un tiranno malvagio che porta ai popoli solo rovina e oppressione?

Recensioni
I hated this book the first time I read it. Hated every person in it, did not understand why anyone acted the way they did. Now it's one of my top-ten comfort reads, and I see so much in Leto I want for myself. Dune was the perfect hero book, and then Herbert turned the trope of “boy becomes Messiah Leggi tutto
The Dune book which asks the important question: would you still love me if I was a worm? And not just any worm–a giant, possibly immortal space work that has now reigned humanity for 3,500 years as the titular God Emperor in Frank Herbert’s fourth installment of the Dune series, God Emperor of Dune .

Bardzo się cieszę, że jednak nie poprzestałam na przeczytaniu "Diuny". "Bóg Imperator Diuny" jest inny. Różni się od poprzednich tomów między innymi ilością metafor i odniesień do współczesnego świata. Nikogo nie zdziwię faktem, że swego rodzaju melanż naprawdę istnieje, a ludzie nie różnią się bard Leggi tutto
God Emperor of Dune Book 4 of the Dune Chronicles By Frank Herbert A Dune Retrospective by Eric Allen What do you say about the book that was so completely terrible that it so turned you off of the series that you refused to read the four books that came after it for over a decade? This book is bad in a Leggi tutto
Okay, this was my second read of God Emperor of Dune. Honestly, it was quite an useful read because now I understand more precisely what was Leto's goal and the exact purpose of his Golden Path. To make a long story short the Golden Path is nothing more than the survival of the human race. At the en Leggi tutto
It's not until the end of this book that you begin to understand Herbert's grand plan for his series. DUNE is really about shaking man out of an evolutionary cul-de-sac, showing a frustrated civil(?) society that despite its technological and social superiority is stagnating. The inventions of the B Leggi tutto
[SPOILER ALERT: if you never read Children of Dune STOP NOW!] Leto II is now the God Emperor after merging with the sandtrout and becoming a monstrous worm-man powered by melange. He rules the known universe with an iron fist - not unlike his Aunt Alya did actually - but this is of course because he Leggi tutto
Please, make it stop.
