Yes
If you were really reading the novel then it will be obvious if its over or will be continued to another book and most of the time the translators leave notes at the end like thanks for reading etc,
But for the "to be continued" it represents what happening most of the time(the cliff) and has no given time frame in release
But for me "soon" implies a shorter time. For example if a movie says ending says coming soon then will mean within 2 years but for to be continued it can last longer than a decade.
