Brian Herbert has written twelve standalone science fiction novels apart from his Dune work, beginning with Sidney’s Comet in 1983. His early novels, including The Garbage Chronicles (1985) and Sudanna Sudanna (1985), established him as a science fiction writer in his own right before he began continuing his father’s franchise. Man of Two Worlds (1986) was a collaboration with Frank Herbert himself.
His later standalones include Ocean (2013), The Little Green Book of Chairman Rahma (2014), The Assassination of Billy Jeeling (2018), and The Unborn (2019). These books cover a wide range of science fiction concepts and styles, showing that Herbert has maintained his own creative identity alongside his work on the Dune universe.
