From Dune

A novel by Brian Herbert and Kevin J Anderson, set to be released by Tor Books, on August 4, 2009.
[edit] Description
The Winds of Dune is the second book of the planned Heroes of Dune four-book series. The book will pick up after the death of Chani, and Muad'Dib's walk-into-the-desert because of his blindness, which occurred in Dune Messiah (novel), by Frank Herbert. The book was originally entitled Jessica of Dune, but was re-branded in early 2009. As Jessica Atreides is the prime focus of the book, the novel opens with her back on Arrakis following the disappearance of her son, the Emperor Paul Muad'Dib.
Two plot events have been confirmed to be in the book:
In one chapter, Jessica and Alia Atreides visit a busy Arrakeen marketplace; and later, Jessica returns to Sietch Tabr to see for herself the place from which her son disappeared.
