Lots of philosophy in here (the God Emperor has had LOTS of time to think.) " - Logan,


Why? To live long enough to personally see to it that the Golden Path worked. " Loved this! It's 3500 years later and Leto II is transformed into basically a monster. Still, I think it was worth reading and thought the overall story was somehow both creepy and endearing. I also think it was difficult to empathize with Leto, which made the ending of the book ultimately anti-climactic. Once the characters started to develop further and I actually became more interested in Idaho and Moneo, the story started to lose momentum. I felt that, aside from the Lord Leo, the characters in this book were pretty devoid of personality until almost halfway through the story. " God Emperor was a good read, but definitely slower than the first three Dune books. Still, a good (and, frankly, kinda necessary) follow-up to the first three books. " Perhaps the last of the truly solid "Dune" books, "God-Emperor." goes light on the action and super-sizes the religious and political philosphy.
