It was only possible to publish the UK paperback in one volume by moderately decreasing the font size compared to the previous novels. Although the final novel so far in the Night's Dawn Universe (a 'guidebook' to the setting, The Confederation Handbook, was later published), Hamilton has occasionally hinted at returning to the setting in future books in the form of a sequel series set up to 500 years after the events in the trilogy.
