This book contains dozens of new monsters found in the Inner Sea region—all invented specifically for the Pathfinder campaign setting! Some, like the gearsmen of Numeria or the moth-like star monarchs who serve the goddess of dreams, have been mentioned many times in Pathfinder Campaign Setting books, but others, like the alien vespergaunt or Rahadoum’s desert-dwelling whirlmaws, have only been obliquely illustrated or mentioned before. And some—like the mysterious and ancient veiled masters, and the disturbingly alluring fungus queen—make their appearance for the first time in print after debuting in Paizo’s office campaigns.
The Inner Sea Bestiary explores some of Golarion’s most unique monsters. Inside this book you will find:
New monsters ranging in challenge rating from 1/3 (such as the mysterious syrinx) to 25 (the powerful infernal duke Lorthact).
Three new monstrous templates: the exotic mind-draining vetala vampire, the blighted fey of Fangwood, and the twisted mutants of the Mana Wastes.
Five new 0-Hit Die races ready for you to customize as villains—or playable as characters if that suits your particular game!
Beings both benevolent and destructive—48 in all—ready to challenge adventurers in any Pathfinder game!
The Inner Sea Bestiary is intended for use with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and the Pathfinder campaign setting, but can be used in any fantasy game setting.

I am also curious about the Gearsmen as well Sub-Creator and I also need to reread that section were they say there are indestructible because I do not remember that one.
Maybe we will get more info on this book during or shortly after Paizo con.
So when do you good folks at Paizo think the list of monsters and how you want them done will be finalized. So we can ask silly and/or anoying questions and actually get some interesting answers. Or at least an idea when this one will be ready to be shipped to the printers.
The monster list is pretty much done and finalized. We're not going to be revealing much more about that list until MUCH closer to the book's release later in the year... we're about 3 months or so away from that, if not more.
I'll just say that the list of monsters for this book delights me. Especially with information on the Gearsmen (Finally! Been waiting years for these guys) and the Mana Waste Mutants.
And "the disturbingly alluring Fungus Queen"? Do we want to know?
As long as we finally get the Lashunta as a core race and the numerian spider/scorpion Mecha with gatling guns and a particle beam cannon tipped tail I'll be on cloud nine!
K from what I heard from James at Gencon we will get androids too! I don't know how I will pay for Christmas presents this year paizo your line up is soo strong.
From what I was told they will be something that can be played and built like normal races which has me all atwitter. What was told to me is that they will look a lot like humans but will have some construct like abilities.

Pulling for ensouled construct options.
I mean, if a goddess can be a robot, surely a robot can have a soul. :)
I blame Daleks. They're afraid of what the ascension of The Brig might entail for them, and the similarity in spelling confused them. An early-dawn raid on the Paizo offices was beaten back by the warehouse velociraptors, though.

I believe that it's name was as yet not decied, as it'll need a two page spread, and if they don't confirm it yet, they can have it slot in where it will fit in.
No, I remember James Jacobs said what it was called somewhere on these forums awhile ago but I do not remember were and I can't remember the creatures name.
That's right it was the Annihilator but for some reason I kept thinking it was the demolisher.
So far we are getting:
Gearsmen of Numeria
Star Monarchs
Vesperguant
Whirlmaw
Veiled Masters
Fungus Queen
Monkey Goblin
Lashunta
Rovagug spawn 1(Chemnosit?)
Rovagug spawn 2(Volnagur?)
Lorthact
Vetala Vampire(template)
Blighted Fey(template)
Mutants of the Mana Waste(template)
Annihilater
Androids?
I can't wait to read all the complaints about how Golarion-specific the monsters and templates within are! Should be exciting!
Oh, but I'm also excited about the book itself . . . not as excited since finding out the Gearsmen won't be nigh indestructible as I'd once hoped (according to how they were described in "City of the Fallen Sky"), but still quite excited! Very much want to see the Blighted Fey template, as I'll be running Kingmaker soon, and I'm a huge fan of the Spawn of Rovagug!
I would be more exciting for a Bestiary 4, this book contains too much mechanica, but I will buy it anyway for the other creatures, cuz many sound interessting

3 robots + 1 android out of about 45 monsters isn't too much, I hope...

How do you know the theme for Bestiary 4 won't be automata? ;p
Yeah 3 robots and an android aren't that many machines plus were getting every creature type and many subtypes represented plus every CR from 1/2 to 25.
The theme for the Bestiary 4 will be space aliens vs robots with some mutants as well;)
