Emre Karadeniz asked Brian Herbert:

Will you continue about Dune series in the future, after "schools" trilogy?

Brian Herbert This is very likely, although the stories might not be published as regularly as Kevin J. Anderson and I did for several years. Each Dune novel is a very serious undertaking, and a great deal of thought and attention needs to go into these books. With 18 novels published in the Dune canon (6 by Frank Herbert, and 12 more by me and Kevin), that means we have covered a lot of territory already – more than 3,000,000 words of territory! Additional stories need to make sense, and need to fit into what Frank Herbert envisioned for his incredible universe. We’ll complete NAVIGATORS OF DUNE (the 19th novel in the Dune canon) and then see what should be added to the Dune universe, while maintaining the high quality standard that Frank Herbert established.
