God emperor is a masterpiece and one of the best philosophical books I have ever read. It just felt like the author has a very deep insight into the human condition. It's not a typical book with a lot pf external action happening though.

I don't think I appreciated God Emperor until after my 4th read through of the series. Frank Herbert definitely has a great insight into the human condition. Soul Catcher and The Godmakers come to mind most readily but his entire body of work explore different facets of humankind.
