And you don't discover there are even more systems beyond the first two until books eight or nine.
However, if you are OK to be spoiled, it's this series. I also outlined the main features of the setting here in a post on my blog.

Man, that is a blast from my past.
Ok. So what I'd do is first - go Effect-Shaping for the base RPM system. It jives better with psionic powers as both rely on skill to do things and both have techniques that you can buy. Second, for a handful of spells you could just base them straight off of Thaumatology and allow them to be purchased as techniques for those truly gifted with them.
That's it. That's all you need. You can find the rules for Effect-Shaping RPM in Pyramid #66 in my article "Alternative Ritual Path Magic."
