By last, I mean the one already in layout not the one he just started.

Yeah, its very detailed so I expect to be a longer edit.
I still think its MH: Power-Ups then Template Toolkit but hopefully we know next week!
The Hurricane one should be interesting, be nice if it hits the shelf before Hurricane season is over (runs from June to Nov for the Atlantic) and I'm hoping it has some useful tidbits for fantasy and weather mages.

I rather doubt it's vehicles for Discworld or Castle Falkenstein -- though he could have written up some less fantastical, more historical Victorian transportation, like their bewildering variety of carriages or an assortment of railway cars. Or, of course, it might be something completely unanticipated. Chanteuses' Zambonis?
I'd like to see some personal vehicles for different eras that characters might like. Bikes and sports cars, maybe a rugged cargo van.

Hmm a Matt Rigsby setting would probably be good, like to see Tramlett get a setting too. There were several good setting ideas in Pyramid I would love to see, including that space car wars setting.
