It's my understanding that The Big Guy (i.e., Steve Jackson, himself) wants to write AtE, or a similar book in the genre.

So I'd be surprised if he gave up that one.

It would be more accurate to say that Steve had certain requirements about the way we handled the series. That was not "the" issue though, because there wasn't just one issue, but a variety of them that cropped up. (And that's all the detail I can really give, sorry.) The series has not been officially canceled, however, and I hold out hope that we'll be able to bring it to you one day -- if only enough of you clap your hands and say that you believe in irradiated mutant fairies. :)

(But no, seriously, please don't start posting "<clapping hands>" replies in this thread.)

And today is GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Treasures 2: Epic Treasures. Sounds epic, whatever it is.

The four individual adventures from GURPS Fantasy Adventures contain the entire book between them, except for a full size version of the covers, but they lack bookmarks, and the images could stand a lot of cleaning up, from things like chunks of dust left in the scanner between pages. They're also not OCRed at all. While adequate for usage, I suspect people hope a complete release would bring them up to the same quality level as subsequent scanned Classics releases.

Fair enough and good point about the lack of OCR which certainly limits their usefulness.

I am guessing the theme of tomorrows Pyramid will be post-apocalyptic or steam punk. I am hoping post-apocalyptic but will get either.

You get post-apocalypse, with Pyramid #3/88: The End is Nigh.

Edit: and it's announcing, in effect, that After the End has been rescued from its bunker and will presumably be published fairly soon. OK, now we know what one of PK's two series is.
