Based on Frank Herbert's original notes for "Dune 7," Hunters of Dune is part one of the two-part conclusion to classic Dune. The final book, Sandworms of Dune is scheduled for publication in 2007.

Hunters of Dune and the concluding volume, Sandworms of Dune, bring together the great storylines and characters in Frank Herbert's classic Dune universe, ranging from the time of the Butlerian Jihad to the original Dune series, and beyond. Based directly on Frank Herbert's final outline, that Brian Herbert found in a long-forgotten safe-deposit box, these two volumes will finally answer questions Dune fans have been debating for two decades.

Kevin Anderson keeps a blog at www.dunenovels.com to update fans on the writing process behind these two long awaited novels. You can read a portion of Kevin's introductory entry below, and please be sure to visit http://www.dunenovels.com/dune7blog/dune7blog.html for more.


 

From Kevin J. Anderson's October 31 entry:
When I look at our heavy writing and editing schedule for HUNTERS OF DUNE and SANDWORMS OF DUNE (the two-volume chronological grand climax to the Dune Saga, based on Frank Herbert's outline for 'Dune 7'), I wonder why in the world I decided to keep this blog.

Well, mainly because we get a lot of mail and a lot of questions, and this seemed the best way to keep you all in the loop. The fans have kept DUNE alive and popular for forty years now, since the first book publication of Frank Herbert's original novel. And the fans have also welcomed our continuation of the Saga, picking up storylines Frank Herbert never had time to write; our new DUNE prequels have won numerous fan-favorite awards, been selected for prestigious 'best of the year' lists, and at least half of our prequels became the best-selling science fiction novels of the year, respectively.

So, the least I can do is pass along some updates and exclusive background information. I will post here as often as I can -- and as often as I have something to report.
