![]() Aside from a few sub plots that don't go anywhere and without spoiling the ending, this summary contains the majority of the plot. Leto tests Siona by bringing her into the desert with him. Hwi and the newest Duncan ghola fall in love with each other. The Ixians send an ambassador, Hwi Noree, who was bred specifically to appeal to Leto II. The worm emperor has gone through a number of Duncan Idaho gholas at this point, killing them when he flies into a rage. ![]() There's a resistance group led by an impetuous girl named Siona who doesn't like Leto II's heavy-handed leadership style and would like to assassinate him. The majority of this book is long philosophical discussions from Leto II, who at this point in the story has been transformed into a worm and has been ruling Arrakis for 3500 of peace. The only reason I finished it is that I was out of Audible credits at the time. (Whoever they paid to occasionally read the poetry/quotes at the beginning of the chapters was AWFUL, like, William Shatner's “singing” meets your high school drama classes' first read of a Shakespeare script awful.) I really enjoyed the previous Dune books, but this book was so bad that I think I'm done with the series at this point. What an absolute snore fest! The one positive was that MOST of the narration was excellent. ![]() ![]() I genuinely do not understand why people like this ![]()
