A Magical Society: Silk Road (OGL) PDF
Expeditious Retreat Press
A Magical Society: Silk Road is a 160-page supplement detailing great overland trade routes.
Borrowing extensively from the caravans of Central Asia, A Magical Society: Silk Road covers a variety of topics: what factors engender great overland trade routes, what elements accompany the existence of silk roads, and how do caravans function on the road (with consideration to terrain). Due to general unfamiliarity with Central Asia, an entire chapter is dedicated to the historic Silk Road with maps detailing the major trade destinations. And, last but not least, there is a trade system with over 1,000 trade goods, giving ultimate tools for economic simulation.

I missed this one until now. Anybody out there use it? Opinions?

No experience with it, but it looks like it might work well in a Qadira campaign, possibly stretching further east into the Kelesh Empire.

I really liked it. I picked it up when Expeditious Retreat Press had a big sale and I must admit would use it as core for my games. It covers both the real world silk road, plus some other types of travel like underground caravans and swamp caravans. This means you can condense all the climate splat books into one. There is also a huge section for every trade good you could possibly think of. If you like the more realistic, low fantasy approach to gaming or liked their other works I would highly recommend it. The only thing it does not do is cover water trade and ships, for that I usually have to consult skull and bones from green ronin.
