Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse for humanity under Paul Muad'Dib Atreides and his Golden Path, here comes the son, Leto II, to finish that which his father cannot do. Undertake the Golden Path and steer humanity towards the crisis point of Kralizec, the battle at the end of the universe.
Not actually the second Leto at all and no longer remotely human, Leto II is the ultimate predator and the culmination of Herbert's ideas about dangerous heroes; be very careful what you wish for. Part man and part sandworm, Leto II is a tragi-comic figure unlike almost any in literature, science fiction or otherwise.
Another human evolutionary paradigm, let's take a look at the Leto II, one of Herbert's finest literary creations.
