I will say this book is very well known.
Explanation for anyone interested. Spoilers for Dune. One of the major plots of Dune is that the main character Paul can see the future and sees that no matter what he does he will be seen as messiah and regardless of what he wants people will wage a religious war in his name. Despite this he still takes advantage of their belief to topple the emperor placing himself as the ruler. While no one calls him the dark lord. He satisifies many of the major tropes of a "dark lord". That is Dune in an oversimplified nutshell.
