It is the start of a separate cycle. The connection back to the original two books becomes more obvious in the later books. From memory, my paperback copy didn't say it was part of a series. It was the next book that said they were following the original books.

I enjoyed the series and have read most of them twice. I agree that they can get a bit preachy which I think is why I haven't completed the reread.
