About God Emperor of Dune
Millennia have passed on Arrakis, and the once-desert planet is green with life. Leto Atreides, the son of 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, and his transformation has made both his appearance and his morality inhuman. A rebellion led by Siona, a member of the Atreides family, has risen to oppose his rule. But Siona is unaware that Leto's vision of a Golden Path for humanity requires her to fulfill a destiny she never wanted, and could not possibly conceive.
