So...I just read the blog posting on this, including the excerpt that was printed there and found an error:
"Thugs!" he managed to should to Rachelle. "Stranglers of Kali!"
Hopefully that's a typo from the blog posting and not an error in the text itself.
That being said, I'll have to pick this one up. I've always been fascinated with Kali and the Thugee.
Just curious...is this book in yet? The Store Blog on Jan 8th seemed to indicate that it had arrived, but it is still listed as "preorder expected January 2009".
I am hoping to purchase it (along with a bunch of other stuff) using the holiday discount. I plan to finalize and place my order in about a week or so.
Thanks for any info!
Despair!
I have just finished reading this book: the last of the four Gary Gygax Aerth novels published by Planet Stories. A thoroughly enjoyable series with The Anubis Murders probably my favourite of the four. Thank you Paizo, especially for the long lost one - what a shame we have no more tales of Ferret and Raker.
But what next?
The biography of Gygax always refers to the seven Gord the Rogue novels: Saga of Old City, Artifact of Evil, Sea of Death, City of Hawks, Night Arrant, Come Endless Darkness, and Dance of Demons.
Looking these up I cannot find new copies of them as they have been out of print for some time; I have checked some chums and they do not have them to lend either.
So, does Paizo have any plans to reprint this series - I do hope so?
Please!

Jason/Fleanetha,
Do you have access to any good used bookstores in your area, or do you use online bookstores like Amazon.com or Powels.com? From time to time I see these books in local Half Price Book Stores here in Columbus, OH, USA. Granted, that isn't the same as just ordering a brand new copy when you want, but a little patience may get you many if not all of Gygax's Gord books in used condition.Speaking of Powells.com, right now they have two used copies available:

I have dealt with them in the past (ordering out of print books from their website) and have found them to be a reputable business.
Setni Inhotep was introduced as a new character just as Gygax was inroducing his new, post TSR, RPG "Dangerous Journeys". I still have my copies on the shelf. It was published by GDW (publishers of Traveller) but was shut down by lawsuit from TSR which challenged Gygax's ownership of his new IP. The judge seems to have decided that since D&D was an RPG developed by Gygax and TSR owned it that they must own this one as well. Ignorant half wit...
