I am sure of it. This series was always marketed as a trilogy. After writing this, he has moved on to another trilogy, Thorn of Breland, which I understand does clear up some of the loose ends. Apparently it's not a direct sequel, though, featuring a new main character. Just trust me when I say that the execution of this particular trilogy was really, really shoddy.
There's a nice anecdote I would to relay. When I was slogging through the final few chapters of the book on the train, the man sitting across from me suddenly pointed towards the book and said "I've got that one too."
Me: "Terrible, isn't it?"
Him: *Pulls a copy of Steven Erikson's Dust of Dreams out of his bag* "This guy's really good. I've got all his books."
Me: "Yeah, I've tried him, but I find his books difficult to get through..."
It was at this point he needed to get off the train. Which is a pity - imagine the conversations we could have had!
